Is it just me or has it been totally unromantic around here lately?
Sorry about that guys, you know how I love the love.
Well let's define * romance * shall we?
Romance n. 1 a prevailing sense of wonder or mystery surrounding the mutual attraction in a love affair (Oxford) 2 love emphasizing emotion over libido (Wikipedia) 3 an ardent emotional attachment or involvement between two people (American Heritage) 4 a way of showing someone you care, someone you love, like or choose to cherish. Romance can keep a relationship alive, or help it begin. (Urban Dictionary)
This week I am trying very hard to read a yummy British time-travel romance novel and it is almost impossible for me. I just can't sit down with it. My to-do list is too long. I want to take action. But I know, I KNOW that I need to take time for the pleasurable lady's smut or at least allow myself to not be so goal oriented for five minutes.
Maybe we should add to our definition of romance that it is about enjoying, savoring, appreciating, accepting, and relishing a person? Just as I need to relax enough to relish a cotton-pickin' romance novel.
People rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they are doing.
