Men Are from Mars and Women Are from Venus
男人看重的是目的,
女人看重的是關係。
女人具有敏銳的直覺,
能處處為他人的需求和情感著想是她們引以為豪的事。
主動向同伴提供幫助被她們看成是偉大的愛的展示。
女人不洞悉男人的天性,
就很容易在不知不覺中傷害了自己所摯愛的男人。
愛情神奇而微妙,
隻有記住男女之間的差異,
愛情才會持久。
時間是愛的養料
Express Your Love, Don’t Buy It

Many times, the small things in life, which we often ignore, are more important than the ones that we consider far more valuable. This theme is highlighted in Kenny Rogers’ song “Buy Me a Rose”. In his song, he insists on the fact that the expression of love plays a significant role in a relationship. However, many people seem to ignore this fact and assume that love can be expressed through wealth and riches.
In his song, Kenny Rogers narrates the story of a wife whose husband loves her very much. However, she thinks that the way her husband shows her his love is not appropriate. According to her husband, the best way of showing his love to his wife is by providing her with all the wealth and comforts of life. Consequently, he works hard day and night and is thus not able to devote any of his time to her. His wife, however, argues that this is not what she wants. All she wants for him is to show her more affection by giving her more of his time, caring for her and by expressing his feelings for her. These are the things that she yearns for in her life and not the big, flashy things that he has given her.
“Buy me a rose, call me from work,
Open a door for me, what would it hurt?
Show me you love me by the look in your eyes,
These are the little things I need the most in my life.”
