RE: LIFE

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the beer. A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then
asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar.
He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full.
They agreed it was. The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else.
He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous "yes." The professor then produced two cans of beer from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed. "Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things--your family, your children, your health, your faith, your friends, your favourite passions--things that if everything else were lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. "The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house, your car. The sand is everything else--the small stuff." If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued, "there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you. Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical
checkups. Take your partner out to dinner. Play another 18 holes. There will always be time to clean the house, and fix the disposal. "Take care of the golf balls first, the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand." One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the beer represented. The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of beers."

RE: Has anyone

RE: Things guys like to do!

Things women like to do

Earning their own money
Gardenning
Having time to chill, read...
Getting pampered
Shopping for personnal items/clothes (with their own money or someone else's credit card! laugh )
Buying handbags, shoes, make up (see above)
Girls only outings ...

These things make women feel good and help to ward off depression and anxiety, in todays modern society a lot of these things have replaced in part staying at home all day doing housework, cooking and sewing. Do you think this is enough??

As for men doing their fair share of home chores! What do you think this replaces? Is it enough? Is it fulfilling? wink

RE: If your girlfriend told you that........

A lot of Rolls drivers are pretty ignorant because they believe that if they have the status symbol then they have "arrived". You get plenty of women who love a ride in a rolls and are prepared to put up with the ignorance of the driver so that they can brag about it. That does not make them descerning women.

RE: If your girlfriend told you that........

You are hypothetically assuming that bigger makes for a better lover which is certainly not the case
