That French Habit...

"I am in favour of preserving the French habit of kissing the hands of ladies. 

After all, one must start somewhere."

Sacha Guitry

I feel an intention of the day should be kisses...

Whether to bravely and spontaneously kiss a stranger.

Or to simply live as though you are kissing life. French kissing that is.

Blow kisses. Whisper kisses. Caress kisses.

It's good for your health. And so many other things.

It will change your entire day. Miracously. Into something wonderful.

And yes, that French habit...

Men, start somewhere. And surprise the women of this world.

Much Loves,

Angela.

Phenomenal Woman... Maya Angelou.

Maya Angelou. 

Phenomenal Woman

"Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman

Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need of my care,
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me."

Touch...

"Some men know that a light touch of the tongue, running from a woman's toes to her ears, lingering in the softest way possible in various places in between, given often enough and sincerely enough, would add immeasurably to world peace."

Marianne Williamson

Yes... Marianne!

I thank you... And I believe, on behalf of all women and world peace!
