Today's Radio Show...

30 Chick Flicks in 30 Days

I was about to change the radio station when this topic came up, but I couldn't be bothered and glad I left it.
In summary a married couple (real story) went on this venture to watch 30 chick flicks in a month.  I thought the consensus from the guy (who was interviewed) would be that overall they were cheesy and too stereotypical.  But he saw past Hollywood, which was a breath of fresh air.

He concluded that to maintain a success relationship you need 3 key factors (amongst the obvious ones)

1) Forgiveness - not just between man and woman, but in life
2) Vulnerablility - allowing yourself to love so much that you let the other person (now talking about the relationship) to enter 100% into your heart so that you let them love you and in turn, risk being hurt by them too.  But without this vulnerability you will never truly learn to be a part of something
3) Friendship - this one quite straight forward

It was nice to hear it from the guy who actually said by sharing these 30 days with his wife, he's managed to turn into a better man.  He said his wife has noticed that he's no longer doing the things that hurt her, is more attentive - listens well - and funnily - has become a better kiss because he's aware of her non-vocal signs. 

I guess it's nice to know that a seemingly stupid social experience could help improve a marriage. 

There is hope for love afterall.

Really?!?!

Last time I checked I lived in Canada.
Last time I checked, we have 4 seasons (supposedly).
At the least we know it snows here and we know it can get hot (although this summer was trying to prove a point)
So why then has there been a FROST WARNING in RED for the last 2 days in Toronto.
When did it become a "severe weather conditions" that we need to be warned of frost?
Now - if this isn't the media making every mediocrity too dramatic, I don't know what is...
C'mon people - it's just really cold water.
Relax already.
