Quote of the Month :: |
"Women
are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree.
The men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid
of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples
from the grounds that aren't as good, but easy. So the apples at the
top think something is wrong with them, when in reality, THEY'RE amazing.
They just have to find the right man, the one who's brave enough to
climb all the way to the top of the tree."
- Unknown (if you know, drop us an email!)
