KISSES!

Keeping Your Relationship Hot
By: Edel Jarboe

A kiss can mean so much, or nothing at all.
Remember when you were five years old
and you thought kissing was yucky?
It wasn't until adolescence that the
meaning of a kiss was slowly revealed
to us. Between giggles we confessed our
first kisses, our secret initiation into the
"adult" world. No one talks about kisses
anymore. Oh, we read about them in
romance novels or see them on the big
screen, but no one discusses them in
hushed whispers between blushes and
giggles.
We are adults.
Kissing is commonplace for us now.
Most of us kiss our partners without
thinking at least once a day.
But shouldn't a kiss always be special?
What is a Kiss?
A kiss is more than the sharing of lips
and breath. It is a mingling of hearts
and souls. A slight tingle, a funny feeling
in the tummy, a racing heart, is to be
expected. A kiss is an intimate connection
to another human being and a simple
way to express love and affection. It is
also a way for us to confirm that our
partner is "the one" and traditionally,
the marriage vow is sealed with a kiss
as well.
What better way to seal the
promise of LOVE!
