Sex 

Copyright 2001 by Jennifer Green 

Sex can be many different things.  It can be a weapon, a game, an
adventure, a means of self-expression, an end to loneliness, for 
procreation, a stress-reliever, a way to get closer to someone, or a 
way to drive them away. 

We are animals, but also have the ability to do things beyond instinct,
and can choose to act or not act accordingly. 

We also live in an age when relationships come and go at light speed. 
You can sit in front of a computer and within minutes enter a chat room 
and start masturbating with a stranger 2000 miles away.   You can find 
hundreds of people looking for sex, but the feeling afterwards is often 
one of profound emptiness, so you look for another high, and sex itself 
becomes a drug. 

Maybe the best sex is the comfortable, easy kind in a relationship, when
you have some sense of awareness of the effect on others, not just your 
lover, but your family, friends, and who you are. 

When all is said and done, you have to live with yourself, and if that
relationship, the most important one of your life, is soured, life can 
get very dreary indeed. 

Perhaps the best sex you'll ever have is by yourself, when you love and
care for yourself.   When you can invite someone you care for to share 
this love and acceptance, that is truly satisfying.
