How does one obtain blind faith in relationships? Possibly through Time, Practice & Patience. This dance is an incredibly amazing rendition of the constant push and pull in relationships, the dance of love making. Utterly breathtaking.

Mind-boggling thought of the day
Mind-boggling thought of the day...I think that after traumatic, life changing episodes in someone's life; they would undoubtedly become a better person. With the understanding that life is to short to be downright MEAN. Unfortunately, some people take these negative experiences&turn them into a life of negativity, where they try to ruin everyone else's life, to make themselves feel better. I think people need to stop being rude & conniving towards others and let us all live happier lives!
