So I was reading something and the following quote struck me....
"men are like wine...its our job to stomp on them & keep them in the dark until they mature into something to have dinner with." - Mifsud.
After reading this I thought to myself...I don't want to stomp on something in order to have it mature...who do I think I am. So I decided to write...I must disagree with that quotation and here is what I felt....
Men are not like wine...men are not like anything on this Earth. They, as a species are a beautiful creation and expression of God's goodness. I don't want to stomp on anything and keep it in the dark....who am I? I am woman. And woman in relation to man (IMO) is a beautiful reflection of himself. A man that I desire to reflect is a man of strength and sensitivity. Affection and openness. Freedom and full self-expression. Can I be that reflection to him? Yes, I can!!! Being present with him always. Giving one another the space to create a beautiful light. There is no darkness where I roam...its nothing and its everything. I am choosing not to define it. I am choosing not to compare it to wine or to whine. I am allowing man to be MAN! Please be that! Ever evolving...ever creating...ever loving...ever.
Now where is my mirror??!?!?!

A Good Year
Last night I was chillaxing at home watching the Ridley Scott directed, Russell Crowe acted film, "A Good Year". You know the one they did together right after "Gladiator"? Yeah, that one.
Well I am always moved by films like this. Always. Whether its "Under the Tuscan Sun" "Roman Holiday" "Something's Gotta Give" ....I think Europe is calling me. Subconciously. I think it is.
OK, back to "A Good Year" well at the end of the film, Russell Crowe's character Max Skinner has fallen hard for Marion Cotillard's character, Fanny Chenal....and she is a waitress in a beautiful French bistro and Max comes back to open up to Fanny and these were the lines....
yes! I was inspired and touched.
Fanny Chenal "You sure you don't need more time?"
Max Skinner "No, I know what I want"
FC "You're sure you don't?"
MS "Absolutely."
FC "So what is it to be?"
MS "How's the soup?"
FC "The soup is finished."
MS "Like my job." "The fish?"
FC "We've run out."
MS "That's like me with excuses."
FC "Don't waste my time, chose something we have."
(Max stands up and faces Fanny...getting very close to her)
MS "I would like a lifetime spent with an irrational and suspicious Goddess. Some short-tempered jealousy on the side and a bottle of wine that tastes like you. The glass that's never empty."
(extremely slow and soft kiss)
MS (in French) "Forgive my lips, they find joy in the most unusual places."
FIN
Now I know this is a movie but damn....that can happen in real life. Not necessary those amazingly written words but the feelings and the energy that exists between Max & Fanny. They were in that deep, speak to the soul, I don't care what the world thinks or says....we create our own world together love!
Beautiful!
I just had to share that because I am moved & inspired by that.
