2 for 1

Exercise is one of the foundations of beauty. The best exercise is also functional for example cleaning the house, walking the dog or raking leaves. The other day when I was doing some functional exercise I noticed something that caused alarmed. There were an inordinate number of men leisurely hanging out at the same time children were walking home from the bus stop. I am aware that the economy is bad and more people are out of work but what I saw was strange.

The men seemed to be girl watching… young girl watching. As we all know young girls are fun, friendly, easy to meet and unfortunately easily deceived. They were walking not sensing any danger and being checked out by vultures. I saw one man leaning forward watching the girls with his undivided attention and when he saw me relaxed into his chair.

I am not a soothsayer or an old wife but I do pay attention to my surroundings. Women are sometimes too hard on young women and girls saying that they are too fast and headed for trouble. Sometimes girls are itching for the good stuff, GOD knows what that is… but many times they are victims of cleaver opportunist and people who seek their harm.

The world is made up of all kinds of people. Beautiful people should take the opportunity to show it by giving good advice, lending a helping hand and being a chaperon or supervisor to ward off danger. Have one on me, get some functional exercise and show your beautiful insides by walking the neighborhood kids to the bus stop or meeting the bus and escorting them home. It’s a 2 for 1.
