Short Stories and Ideas
(c) William Russell
First you must raise yourself
Read on and find out
It is very easy
All you have to do
Is read the following list
That I didn't do
And your child or children
Will have a perfect bringing up
Are you ready?
I don't think so
Let's start anyway
1) Start off with a woman or a man
That your likes and dislikes are almost equal
Forget the old bullshit
That it will not be exciting being just alike
By being almost the same
It makes communications between you
That much easier
2) It is communications you must start your life on
A one hundred percent communication basis
Express your most abstract thoughts to each other
From childhood up
Let's say you are a female
And you had a childhood fantasy
Of making love to your best girlfriend
You now say
I couldn't be that open now could I
Not true
Remember
If you have these kinds of fantasies
He also may have the same
It's possible that both of you
Could be turned on to each other
More than you thought
Remember
You are saying to each other
I love you
Or are you just saying I love you
Without meaning or consideration for each other
If you love each other
And are sincere about it
Then a night out with the boys or girls alone
Is bullshit
And just that
Sure, a night out is just time
With the boys or girls is just fine
So long as you are with me
You need time for yourself
That's just another excuse
If things don't work out
The way you want them to
Think about it
You are the one who used the words
I love you
On yourself
To your partner
As well as others you tried to convince
If you are saying now
Five years down the road
I no longer love him or her
You were a big liar weren't you
When you tried to convince yourself
Your partner
And others of your fantastic love affair
You see
I would say 95% of us
Are walking around in a dream world
Not being able to distinguish the fantasy from the real
Rejecting now what you are reading is your desperate fight
To remain in your dreamworld
Without giving this material
A fair chance
