Just a thought: music of today reflects that modern generations have lost sight of what love is.

Case in point: modern rnb. There's no fidelity, vulnerability, or true romance in it anymore. It's lustful, but it's just not the same.

Great observation! Music has dramatically declined since the 60's in terms of melodic and lyrical variation.

One of the greatest books I ever read is the 1920's Oswald Spengler's Decline of the West. In it, he said art is a leading indicator of a society's decline. He marks the release in 1808 of Beethoven's 5th symphony as the height of Western Civilization. Now, they strut about shaking provocatively, if not pornographically, and bellow self-righteously words of self-glorification to the same mind numbing tune in song after song. Here is one recent example, Money by Cardi B.


Originally, I was going to post the lyrics but decided they would not comply with CyB rules. You can read the revolting lyrics at Cardi B – Money

When life gets hard, the playfulness and whimsy you had when dating can be hard to come by. But Ive found that its important to maintain these.

Even if things are stressful and serious for a season, keep your sexy. Borrow some of the playful antics of the pretty bimbo who pulls all the guys while staying grounded and loyal to your husband.

Its not easy. Life can be ridiculously tough and you'll want to toughen up to handle it. But keep your girlish side. Don't always be serious. Be frugal but sometimes, buy something just for fun to make things happy again.

Be modest to everyone else...dont be modest with your husband.

Don't get rid of all your impractical desires if you're pursuing discipline. Sometimes men rely on women being a slight element of chaos to break up the routine. Not drama or arguing. Spontaneous fun. Icing on the cake.

Be responsible...but don't be afraid to be a little "extra".

Ayn Rand, who admits being a male chauvenist, would not vote for a women president. She says she does not believe a good woman would want such a position.

There is nothing wrong with being a super modest conservative muffin 80 percent of time. In fact in my humble home country the United States, plenty of women ought to move in that direction immediately.

Use the other 20 percent to throw in some surprises for your husband.
