The Love

Sex invokes the most powerful emotion
 you can feel. Sex is the very definition 
of the word real. Here's a message for
 girls and boys: sex is not a plaything;
 it's not a toy.

In the early years of a relationship 
it might be fun, like when you're trying 
to add a daughter to your life, or a son. 
Beyond that, it helps to get to know one 
another--to bring two into being one with
 each being with other. To know the body
 and to know the soul. That's the sexual goal. 

But there comes a time where you have to
 let sex go in exchange for a relationship
that each of you should know. So many people
make the same mistake: they treat sex like it's 
the only thing on the plate.

But here is the secret, you can take it or leave
it alone, some carry on sexual relations far
too long until it starts to feel all wrong. It 
could cause a good relationship to go off
the track and never get that old feeling back.

Here are the rules to follow. Let's make it clear. 
This is what I want to share: first comes the 
sex-life, and then a loving relationship 
which creates the spirit of love for two 
becoming as one under these skies of blue. 

Then, when you let the sex-life die a natural 
death, love and happiness is what you will 
have left. The less sex, the more love you get. 
and much more if you quit. 

Some may think this is a bunch of lies. I'll 
simply say it's a word to the wise. One more 
thing, to make this pure perfection: kisses, 
hugs and love talk are still good to maintain
even more love,  a life and affection.
