New Year's Reflection

A man’s life is driven in certain times by three facets of his being.

One, his brain. The brain kicks in and operates the work self. The thinking self. The reflective, procrastinating and eventually inactive self.

 The second is the heart. The heart plays with the man’s emotions. Turns his stomach. Occupies the mind with the constant thought of you. Her. She.

 The last is his libido. The sex drive that he denies but comes to play anyway. The one that trumps the heart. Trumps the brain. Makes him irrational. Makes him forget about emotion. Forget about feelings. Just pleasure.

As men, we juggle the three. And sometimes they juggle us. Places us as the pea in a shell game that is love, lust and thought.

This is why I worry. Worry about hurting someone. Worry about them not understanding. This is why I let the brain control me. Make me inactive. Make me miss out on what the heart wants and what the libido desires.

Happy New Year Lovelies.
