Relationships: The Rules of Attraction

We've all heard of the so-called rules of attraction but something is telling me that it may be a load of wash. If a person sits back and really thinks about attraction, romance, and love; a different picture comes to mind, A whole new thought process takes place. I now believe that anyone can fall in love. What I mean by this is a straight person can fall in love with a gay person, a gay person can fall in love with a straight person, people of different faith and religions can fall in love, even different races. We've all witnessed these types of things happening. Given the right set of circumstances, you could find yourself in love with the type of person that you never thought you'd be with, in a billion years. We have these ideas of who we want to lay next to at night or for the rest of our lives but the person you or I may be dreaming of, might not be the person for us. Have you ever watched a movie where two absolutely straight people start feeling attraction to each other because of a single moment? It would seem that it's not that they're gay, they have just fallen in love with that particular person of the same sex and they say things like: "if it's not that person, I wouldn't do it" or "I just want him by my side always". A racist person could find themselves in love with a member of a race that they've hated all their lives. A businesswoman can fall in love with one of the most dangerous criminals in the world and not even be remotely afraid of him. I guess what I'm trying to say here is the next time you see someone on the street, in the store, at church or across the hall, don't think about the things that you don't find appealing about a person, try to look for something that makes you take a second glance. Maybe he or she has a great smile but terrible skin. Maybe he or she a little loud but have the most beautiful eyes or hair. Maybe he or she is too thin or too thick but they dress as well as a model. Let's just forget about the rules of attraction because they simply aren't real or they aren't fair. Maybe you have someone that you like and you're afraid that it might not work out because you two are as different as different as night and day. I say go for it because there's always the time when night and day meet. I may be a hopeless romantic but I know how it feels to love outside the box!

Guess Who's Engaged!

I know my personality better than most but when I was asked the big question... well I turned into that little girl that had so many big dreams about how her wedding would be. Darius and I have been together for a while. We have had more than our share of ups and downs, needless to say the majority have been because of me or a particular way I have behaved in the past. So here I am.... 35 years old and finally getting ready to take the plunge. I feel like I'm in my early twenties and starting college... those were the days!!!! I don't know what lies ahead but I have made a promise to myself to be a better person. I know that in marriage, there is no "I", "You" or "Me". There is only "Us" or "We". I won't go into the statistics on marriage and divorce. I refuse to go into this thing and thinking about how it will end. Perhaps it will be a forever type thing. I'm sure that my parents thought and felt the same things tha...

A Love of Nature

I have been in love with nature for as long as I can remember. Summer vacations in Wisconsin gave me the opportunities to really be one on one with nature through camping, hiking, horseback riding and swimming. As time passed, I allowed the obligations and responsibilities of everyday life distract my love of nature but I found that it was hard to feel that same sense of freedom and tranquility when I lost touch with the great outdoors. A few years back, I found nature again through visiting national wildlife refuges speckled around my home state. Refuges such as Morgan and Mathew Brake, give visitors the opportunity to safely enjoy nature once again. Visitors can breath fresh air and listen to the sounds and view nature as well as read all about the animals that frequent the location as well as live there permanently. Four years ago, I decided to start saving injured turtles. If I saw one in or on the side of the road, the would carefully retrieve it and get it to safety. In th...
