An Open Letter to the Men of the World
Dear Men of the world,

I'm not sure if you watched the American Idol Finale last night, but I hope you'll at least check out the very end.

In the last few seconds of the show, something beautiful made the heart of every woman watching melt. Like butter. Like butter on a hot yeast roll. Except I'm not eating yeast rolls right now so let's say- like butter on a freshly steamed spear of broccoli.

Anyhow.

Where was I --- butter- melting- something beautiful- oh yes.

It's the way Kris held his wife when he found out he'd won. He hugged her. But then he held her.

And it was in those extra few seconds with his head tucked into her neck, that her heart felt completely safe.

Though thousands of girls were screaming for Kris' attention, he held her. Her. Only her. He turned his head and all his love from the screaming crowd and tucked it into his woman. His promise. His true love.

The one that loved him before--- the one that will love him for all the tomorrows to come.

You see, inside the heart of every woman there is a longing for those few extra seconds it takes to turn a hug into a hold. And if you take those extra few seconds, her heart will be yours forever.

And it would also be nice if you whispered that you have never thought her butt looks big and if you could replace the numbers on the scale with the word "perfect" you would. Yes, that would be nice as well.

Sincerely,

The heart of a woman
