The End: When We All Die.

Preface: If you don't find the humor in this in the fact that I am DEAD SERIOUS about every word below, you are probably already dead and this does not apply to you.
 
The day has come! Judgment day, D-Day, when Jesus comes to get us, well, those of us He's taking with Him, The last day of the world- THE BIG ONE- Floods and fire, locusts, frogs, earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, tornadoes, nuclear melt-downs, aliens the whole nine yards!

"What is we gone do?", some may ask...
"How can we stop this disastrous day from occurring? Go to church and get right with the Lord? Call my mom? Go to my local Walmart  and buy up all the water, batteries, and bread I can find?"

Others may need to know, "How can we prepare to Survive this horrible circumstance? What Hero will save us?"  "GO GREEN!", they say. "Plug the hole in the ozone layer; STOP global warming! That'll give us more time!"

There MUST be a way to have an ending like those in the movies like 2012, The Day After Tomorrow, and Independence Day! Some person or GROUP of people must have the answer, RIGHT?


WRONG!!!!!

There is NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING to be done- What CAN you do? Furthermore, WHY would you WANT to do anything about it in the first place? If the WHOLE WORLD is ending today or whenever...and EVERYBODY is going to die anyway- WHY, in the name of sauteed elephant shit, are you trying to live through it and be the only person left on the earth? So you can mate with the only other survivor who happens to be your first cousin and repopulate the Earth? I would certainly hope NOT! GO IN PEACE!!! I mean, really, how bad could it be? You probably won't feel a thing (unless you try to fight it)

It's not like you will leave people behind who will miss you or you will miss all your loved ones when they are gone and be sad, because... NEWSFLASH: THEY'RE DEAD TOO!

STOP trying to be a hero and just let the world end already- The way it was intended to! IF YOU MUST DO SOMETHING...Try this:

Get your affairs in order with whichever Higher Power it is you identify with whom you believe will save your poor mortal soul to secure your spot wherever it is you would like to spend the rest of eternity after the inevitable occurs! 

And that's all I have to say about that!

Let's Talk About... SEX!!!

My very first Blog post. I'm excited. Any feedback, comments, or concerns are welcomed and appreciatied! I hope you enjoy!
Sex. Everyone is doing it, right? Two (or more) consenting adults getting together to "do it", these days, is not such a big deal, right?
Everybody does it so what's the fuss about, right? Getting out there and getting some should be a piece if cake... or at least one would think, but let's take a step back and look at an angle I never explored until I was faced with the issue of finding a NEW sex partner after ending a long-term monogamous committed relationship.
Now, some of you might say, "Helen, you are an attractive, young vixen. You should have no problem finding a man to be with in bed." True as that may be, most women in this situation (including myself) don't want just any man. Even if he is only to serve a physical purpose. There are a few SPEED BUMPS before a woman (or man) on the road to finding "The One". To have sex with, that is.

1. Finding a new partner is NOT like picking a new flavor of ice cream.
Oh, if only it could be so simple...
Whenever I go to Coldstone, TCBY, or some other similar venue I petty much know what I want, but when I get inside I almost ALWAYS sample at least two other flavors just to be sure or if there is something new I've yet to try. Apply this practice to finding a lover and there is no certainty of what you might get except a trip around the block or two and a name for yourself before you finally find "The One". Its not very becoming of anyone to go around trying sex partners like the flavor of the week!

2. If you know me, you know that Drake is FAR from my favorite rapper, but he said it best. "How you supposed to find the one when anyone will come with you?" Even apart from being in a relationship...and to add to that... How am I supposed to get with someone when a lot of these SOMEONES out here will get with ANYONE? You know what they say, "When you sleep with someone you sleep with everyone they have ever slept with." That's a hard pill to swallow, but brings me to my final point and question...

3. Who are you doing? We are all adults here so let's be real who is NOT having sex (at some point) these days? You finally found "The One". You've been out of the game for months, looking...and you found them. But what about this person whom you have decided to be intimate with? Since EVERYBODY is doing it- Who are they doing it with? Is it more than one person? And now that they are "The One" will you also be that to them? Is that too much to ask outside of the confines of a committed relationship, sexual monogamy? Or is it too much to ask, if you decide to enter into a sexually polygamous relationship, who else is involved and when (not in complete detail, but in general time frame). One has the right to know, right? I would sure hope so...
Or does that even work? Being sexually exclusive without having a romantic relationship. Ponder on that and let me know what you guys think!
