My religion
jo©
My love looked at me
perplexed
on Sunday.
Pish, posh
because I told him
the only religion
I believed in
was the Golden Rule.
Pish, posh
when I told him
I was sure
that if there was a God
he'd be alright with me
following this one simple command.
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you
He literally
told me
I was oversimplyfing.
The point of my story isn't him. I forgive him for saying that. It was a conversation not a judgement. It also happened to be true.
If anything's gotten me into trouble in my life it was oversimplification.
That won't stop me though .
I'm still going to make it my goal on a daily basis to do unto others as I would have them do unto me.
I do the best I can.

perfectly said, Jo.
Life is complex enough as it is. Breaking it down into simple things make a smoother ride.
I think Chickybabe just said it more perfectly! Thanks Guys. :)
"Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" CINDY LAUPER (in a sense that they are more optimist then men and resistant)
Yes, we can be. I just read a newspaper article about women's resiliency. I belive the study was done at Harvard.
The finding was that women coped and networked, reaching out to each other.
This boosted life expectancy and resiliency.
Men were often not able to do this so therefore their outcome was a shorter life.
