What is it about the female sex that causes my reaction to them? Is Freud right? Is it some sort of animal instinct? I don't know and frankly I don't care. I absolutely adore women. Something about them makes me smile. Just talking to one can calm me.
I am more relaxed and at peace when having a conversation with a girl then at almost any other time. We could be talking about the crusty stuff on the ceiling and I would be fine. I know I’m stealing a line from a song, but light really does attach to a girl. Probably one of my top three things to do would be to fall asleep cuddled with a girl, no sex involved. Just the mere presence would give me a better nights’ sleep. Most of my friends, and all of my best friends, are girls. I’ve been told that I have a quality or something that makes them easier to read and understand, and they somehow sense that and feel (most of the time) very comfortable around me.
Maybe it’s their grace, or some similar quality, that makes me unable to take my eyes off of them. Maybe it’s an indescribable aura that attracts me. Again, I don’t know and I don’t care. As long as it is there, I’m the happiest man around if a girl is near. They don’t even have to be with me. Listening to a woman speak at the next table over is reason enough to delay my departure.
Maybe because I’m like this is the reason I can understand (to a certain degree; not even women themselves can understand women all the time) and get along/work with them so easily. I am extremely grateful for my female friends and acquaintances. I’ve helped them through whatever troubles they have come to me with; and I did it with great pleasure. I consider it my payment for the joy and presence the give me just for being there. My friends have, just by being available, helped me through any problems I might have had; many were averted by their, for lack of a better word, power over me.
As I sit here writing, I can’t help but enjoy the atmosphere these graceful beings create. That is one of the main reasons I come to the Third Place. I know that I sound like a swooning idiot, but I thank God that He was wise enough to create women. Like the title said, this is a rant; so I don’t know if there is any way to end this. Oh well.
If I could, I would send a bouquet of flowers to every woman on the planet for making it a better, more enjoyable, and certainly lovelier place to live. Hell, the sheer variety makes Earth a more interesting place. I don’t know what odd twist of culture made it this way, but I’m eternally grateful that women travel in groups. If it were up to me, that along would make life bearable. I’m going to try and end this spiel of mine, so I’ll finish with this: To all of you women out there - Thank you for being alive. You make my world interesting.
