so, my son was doing his homework

um, -in the car, on the way to school this morning while i drove.

and part of this included a questionnaire with sex-related questions the kids were to ask their parents..

these things leave my mind pretty quickly, so i don't remember all of the questions.. just a few

how old do i think a person should be before having sex?

18. as i've mentioned before; i do not know how to dream small.

-my thoughts on abortion.. pro-choice.

-best age to have children... 24/25.. /after its legal to drink.. /she says with a smile.. but i kid. more to do with energy/maturity/optimism..

-can he talk to me about sex?... i said 'i sure hope so! any awkward question you are brave enough to ask.. i will honestly answer..'

but my favorite one.. the one that stands out:

what do i wish i knew about sex and relationships back in the day.

i said, "i wish i knew men who put God first in their lives."

both my son and nephew responded with the equivalent of boos and tomatoe tossing..

".. i mean it.. because they would make better sex partners.. anyone who puts God in front of their ego.."

and then i signed the homework just as they were exiting the car for school...

***

and i remembered a male creature who wore a cross necklace.. who talked a good Christian game..

who could look directly in the eyes of someone he swore fidelity and faithfulness to.. and lie -so competently, and convincingly..

/very impressive acting retrospectively speaking..

but could be all the while f'ing more than one person.

-just undoes me.. not the act of infidelity itself; which is several degrees of horrific all by itself.. but

the lying, sneaking, deceiving.. so casually and at master levels..

with no care. -it is beyond my comprehension..

i just know, based on SEVERAL life experiences; and countless observations..

when I say 'a man who puts God first..'

I do not mean a man who PRETENDS to put God first; who wears the write jewelry and talks the good talk..

I mean a man who.. in His heart and mind and conscious..

Who -for real, puts God first..

such a man would make an awesome lover.. because it has to do with actually being in love. /which is not self seeking..

and being able to trust..

In Jesus name.. Amen!
