Whether in or out of bed, I really don't get it-- what is the point of faking it? Either you are truly happy being with someone, or you are not. If you don't actually feel fulfilled despite the big house full of toys, fancy car and fat bank account, then maybe it's time to take a good look at some of your life choices and make some changes. The secret to success is this: you have to define it for yourself.
Growing up poor, I bought into all the commercial hype and after putting myself through law school I pursued all the normal big-ticket items, but with each new acquisition or professional accomplishment I found myself thinking "what's next?" It's almost like you become a junkie looking for that next big hit. The problem is that this never ends, and once you realize how meaningless it all is, what you are left with is a deep, undeniable feeling of dissatisfaction. At that point, what do you do? Well, let me clue you into something that has been medically proven: dis-ease will eventually lead to disease. If your mind isn't well, those problems will manifest themselves in your body.
Take a good look at the GenXers around you-- how many of those in the rat race have actually aged well? Not many. Why is that? To me it is clear that the very life is being sucked out of them, and if you don't want to end up the same way, then truly do something about it. Stop burying your feelings and putting on a happy face, even though deep inside you feel like you are dying. The fact is you will have to let a part of you die so that a new you, the real you, can live.
Unless you are performing on Broadway, don't feel like you need to put on an act. Life is too short to go around faking it (especially in bed). Be true to yourself both on and off the clock, and live a life full of passion. This my friends is my holiday wish to you all. Be real, and enjoy the real beauty that life has to offer before it is too late.
