i'm tired.

just wanted to make that point.

and i'm needing to express something that i just need to let out.

something kinda funny.

but not really.

lol.

anyway....

i'd just like to say...

SEX....

....PEOPLE TOO OFTEN USE AND ABUSE IT....

...TREATING IT LIKE IT'S JUST SOMETHING TO BE PLAYED AROUND WITH....

....TOO MANY PEOPLE LET IT HAPPEN BEFORE GETTING TO KNOW THE PERSON THEY'RE HAVING IT WITH....

...WHICH OFTEN SPELLS HEART ACHE....

....BECAUSE TOO OFTEN THE PERSON WHO GOES AND DOES SOMETHING WITH ANOTHER PERSON, DOESN'T REALLY THINK ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES...

...THEY GET "SWEPT" INTO THE MOMENT....

...THEN THEY FIND OUT AFTERWARDS, THAT THEY'VE LOST THEIR VIRGINITY TO SOMEONE WHO DIDN'T REALLY CARE ABOUT THEM TO BEGIN WITH....

...AND THAT PRECIOUS THING YOU KEPT FOR THAT ONE SPECIAL PERSON YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE GOING TO BE WITH FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE IS GONE....

....AND THERE'S NO GETTING IT BACK!

SO....

...I GUESS THAT IN SAYING THIS, I AM JUST GIVING MYSELF A FRIENDLY REMINDER, TO BE CAREFUL AND TO NOT LOSE MY COOL....

...TO KEEP MYSELF IN CHECK, AS IT WERE, AND HOLD ON TO THE NOTION THAT IT WILL HAPPEN WITH THE RIGHT PERSON AT THE RIGHT TIME....

....EVEN THOUGH IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT WILL FOR ME.....

....BUT IT'S HARD TO BE IN LOVE WITH SOMEONE SO DEEPLY AND TO KNOW THEY LOVE YOU BACK JUST THE SAME....

...WELL, I GUESS THAT'S BESIDE THE POINT AND REALLY NOT ANY OF YOUR BUSINESS, NOT TO BE MEAN OR ANYTHING...IT'S PRETTY PERSONAL....

....BUT YEAH....

....I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT I SEE SEX AS SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE PERSONAL AND KEPT FOR ONE PERSON ONLY.

I BELIEVE THAT LOVE IS WHAT COMES FIRST IN A REAL "RELATIONSHIP", NOT SEX, AND THAT THE FEELING OF LOVE IS WHAT MAKES SEX SO SPECIAL FOR TWO PEOPLE WHO TRULY BELONG TO EACH OTHER....

....BECAUSE I SEE THE ACT OF SEX AS SOMETHING THAT INVOLVES GIVING YOURSELF COMPLETELY TO YOUR PARTNER....

...THAT WHEN YOU DECIDE TO HAVE SEX WITH SOMEONE, IT IS NOT BECAUSE YOU JUST WANT TO "HAVE SEX"....

....IT IS BECAUSE YOU WANT TO SHARE THAT DEEPEST, MOST INTIMATE PART OF YOUR SOUL WITH THEM...

....YOU LOVE THAT PERSON IN THE DEEPEST WAY...

...IT IS BECAUSE YOU WANT TO BE A PART OF THAT PERSON FOREVER...

...AND YOU WANT THEM TO CARRY A PART OF YOU, TOO.

...IT IS LIKE GIVING ONE ANOTHER YOUR MOST PRECIOUS GIFT.

SO...I GUESS WHAT I AM TRYING TO SAY IS, DON'T WASTE YOUR GIFT...

....DON'T HAVE SEX WITH JUST ANYONE.

IT'S SOMETHING TOO PRECIOUS TO JUST GIVE AWAY LIKE THAT...

FOR YOUR SAKE, PLEASE ALL YOU KIDS OUT THERE...YOU SHOULD BE MORE CAREFUL!!!

I KNOW A BUNCH OF PEOPLE IN SCHOOL WHO JUST HAVE SEX WITH A LOT OF PEOPLE AND DON'T THINK ABOUT WHAT THEY'RE DOING...

...AND TO ME IT JUST DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT...

...BECAUSE, AS I'VE SAID, I SEE SEX AS SOMETHING VERY PERSONAL AND INTIMATE....

....NOT AS SOMETHING YOU JUST GIVE AWAY LIKE A TOY WITH EVERY HAPPY MEAL!!!

LOL

I GUESS WHAT I AM TRYING TO SAY IS...

LOVE WITH ALL OF YOUR HEART AND SOUL.

(BEFORE DECIDING TO LOVE WITH YOUR BODY!!!)

BECAUSE LOVE IS WHAT MAKES ALL THINGS SPECIAL. AND LOVE IS NOT TO BE ABUSED.

TREASURE IT. :-)

peace always,

Rebecca
