I’ve been thinking a lot about giving recently. In other words, I’ve been experiencing how the simple giving of our attention—not of gifts or any other highly coveted thing, but of our own undivided open-eared presence—is perhaps THE ultimate act of generosity. Our attention is indeed a powerful show of selflessness, whether we’ve given it wholly to a pet, a loved one, a colleague, or someone we barely know.

Every guy you know thinks she’s cool/smart/funny. Men get giddy around her. Conversations stall when she walks into a room.

I love dating. More so than dating, I love men. I celebrate men. They are incredible, strong, fun and so wonderful to interact with. I like meeting for coffee dates, dinner dates or having phone dates.

A movie? I’d love too. A dance club? I hope you can keep up.
