The worst thing to be without …

Hope.

Lately I’ve been surrounded by a nervous energy that is pretty easy to explain. It feels as if every person that I am in contact with is fighting some kind of battle. Read more

Six Things I Find Attractive in a Woman Now That I Am 40

Inspired by a post on The Good Men Project, motivation by Melzie G

S.E.X. We can associate just about anything with sex and for good reason. This three letter word is what separates what I found attractive in my twenties and into my thirties to what I find sexY and attractive now. I’m not just referring to the “release” but also our experiences, which in turn have released some of the most powerful feelings we will ever know; pleasure or pain, anticipation or dread. My progression, transformation takes me from pursuing, awareness, relating, committing and finally maturing.

Truth is I don’t want to play.
