Ode to the Ladies
I know I'm not the nicest guy when it comes to love and relationships. I have a tendency to get bored quick and move on even quicker.
That said, I really do appreciate women. Every time I take a girl out, every single time, I am blown away.
I feel like Toad from American Grafitti.
No matter how much success I may have, no matter how much experience I accumulate, despite my fancy duds, my confident speech or my demeanor, deep down inside I'm still that awkward teenage nerd, and I still ask myself what in the hell is she doing with a guy like me.
I don't consider it a lack of confidence. After all, I did ask her out in the first place. It's awe. I am in absolute awe of women. Without you there'd be nothing worthwhile in this world but war and pillaging. So thank you for giving guys like me a reason not to don warpaint and beat our chests in futility. You really do make this life worth living.

God, so atrocious in the Old Testament, so attractive in the New--the Jekyl and Hyde of sacred romance.

If people are good only because they fear punishment and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed.
