"How would you make love to me?" you mumble in the darkness. You’re on the edge of sleep, the precipice of your daily death. “I would make love to you with fumbling hands, exploring your body with the kind of caution that would drive you mad. I would ask permission for every little thing. I would be like a child, naive and timid, hoping you lead the way. In my heightened self-consciousness, I would look upon my body, pockmarked and scarred, as unworthy. But part way through, I hope, I will throw off this anxiety, this nervousness and I will lose myself to the pleasure of you and me. I will find a way to give in to instinct. I will drop my fumbling, clumsy hands and pick up a bodily confidence, dust it off, and wear it around my neck like a cross. And when words fail me I will listen to the rhythm of your moans as they punctuate the air like Morse code, and I will respond in kind. My hands will be guided by instinct, following what our bodies tell us. I will make love to you with a reverence reserved for the Holy Sepulchre itself.” Suddenly pulled back from death, you roll over on top of me and start planting kisses down my arms. Then you move up to my neck. My heart rate jumps and you are sighing passion, gasping for breaths in between, and moving to my lips. “Stop.” I whisper, managing to get the word out. You do. “Why?” “This feels wrong. I’m only going to be here a few more weeks.” “So?” “So it’s impossible for us to be in a relationship.” “So you can only have sex with someone you’re in a relationship with? Who made that rule?” I try to remember but can’t. I’m caught off guard. I suddenly can’t think of a reason why we shouldn’t have sex, a temporary amnesia I blame you for. You’re here, you’re willing, and I know, I know you’ll be good to me. I know you will not laugh and I know you’ll steady my trembling, fumbling hands. In my silence, you resume your sinful temptations. “We should stop,” I say. “I know.” But we don’t. We slide deeper and deeper into sin, into lust, into corporeality, into bodies and into each other, colliding and crashing into each other’s open mouths and open wounds. You are my Holy Sepulchre. I have died in your arms and now you will resurrect me.

If you don’t make the time to work on creating the life you want, you’re eventually going to be forced to spend a LOT of time dealing with a life you DON’T want.

Why wait?? Steer clear from the "what ifs" & "could've beens"...missed chances and opportunities will sometimes become moments that will linger within us. Many like to take time and proceed with caution when it comes to making certain choices & decisions, however, not many of us have the luxury to wait...time waits for no one, so make the best of it now. #MyThoughts #LiveLifeFully #TakeChances #SeizeEveryOpportunity #QuoteBy #HughLaurie

Never regret a day in your life: good days give happiness, bad days give experience, worst days give lessons, and best days give memories.

It’s not common for someone to ask if they can kiss you because a kiss is taken to be such a small thing, insignificant even. Do you ever expect to be asked if someone can kiss you? No. That would be weird. Because, so often, consent is implied.

You make the excuse that if she didn’t want to kiss you, she could turn away or say something as you lean in slowly, assuming you lean in slowly at all. So you may think there’s no reason to ask. But asking for a kiss is about jumping into something unknown. Asking for a kiss is a kind of declaration of affection, albeit a small one. It means, “I like you. I like you and I want to put my lips on yours and see what happens. May I do that?” Asking for a kiss is important. Saying the words is important.

You make the excuse that if she didn’t want to have sex, despite the fact this would be your twenty-seventh time having sex as a couple, she could always say, “No, not tonight.” So you may think there’s no reason to ask. But asking to share a sexual experience with someone is about the certainty of being wanted. It’s about knowing someone wants you to see them naked. It’s beautiful when someone touches you in places that have dust in them. It’s even better when someone tells you how much they want to touch you there.

But asking for a kiss or to have sex doesn’t typically happen, and so consent becomes the responsibility of the one receiving affection rather than the one initiating it. Asking outright isn’t common. But I’m here to argue that asking outright can be sexy simply because it is unexpected. “May I kiss you?” can be just as romantic as “May I have this dance?”
