Sex

Sex is everywhere. It is on TV, the internet, magazines, and in our minds. No matter how hard we try, we can't escape seeing it or hearing about it. Sometimes sex can be mistaken for love. Often a relationship can last for a while with sex as it's foundation, but eventually, when everything else dies around it, this physical lust will not be enough to keep any relationship alive. Most Americans are very confused about sex.... most people's view on sex is distorted from its original intent. Top thoughts on the subject are: sex is merely a fun act, while others think it is the measuring stick for how good marriage will be (both wrong). There is much benefit that comes with being someone who understands sex is sacred and is meant to be a highly emotional way to connect with someone you will love and cherish for the rest of your life. I was reading an article that says statistics from the U.S. Department of Health and Human services show that 99.7% of virgins who get married never divorce. Those who appreciate sex and what makes it important will greatly reap the benefit of having a healthy and meaningful REALationship.
