As I read a news article about the discovery of a new species of millipede here,

My rope is getting shorter
    and I fear I'm near the end.
My bridge is overloaded
    it will surely break or bend.
The fabric of my being
    my fears shall shortly rend,
Yet my life shall still continue
    for I've found myself a friend. 

"I love my wife because she calls me out whenever I'm wrong, corrects my faults, and keeps me on the right path." ...said no real man, ever.

That's not why a real man loves his wife. So why can't women figure this out? Maybe it's because the men can't even figure it out. 

Dear Society:

I like to think that I’m the rock,
Yet this I know: she’s my Gem.

I dunno… I just find myself at a point in my life where I have this overwhelming sense of awestruck wonder, and words just fail me.

Is God satisfied?

Think about satisfaction, and what it is and what it means. In regards to your marriage... what are your requirements for satisfaction? Surely intimacy comes to mind.  And, of course, sex comes to mind—perhaps more for the men than for the women.

It happened perchance, he met her one day
With a passing glance, she cast a smile his way
An instant attraction, he could not deny
Inside his emotions, he'd either fight or fly.

Friends, the time is short.

None of us knows which day will be our last. I am more aware of this now than ever.
