Sex is very good and pleasurable and sweet thrilling. It can make us go gagger, forgetting ourselves. But, the way we abuse it is wrong.
The way we make it the center stage, the priority; the way we build our lives around it is pathetic and, dangerous. And, if we fail to arrest the situation, we'll lose the most important concept which is love.
There's never been a great man who became great becos of his sexual conquests nor a woman who became great becos of her sexual promiscuity. Bill Gate became great becos of his brain and Celine Dion became great becos of her voice and musical talent.
There's never been a game changing invention or innovation that came through sexual thrill. And our forefathers built this our great world becos they focused their energy on the more important things in life-love, marriage, family.
In their time, love survived without sex and marriages survived alot longer; people stayed married even when the pleasure of sex was long dimnished.
Becos they controlled their cravins, shamful behaviour like infidelity was unheard of. So much unlike thìs our age when married people prefer sexual pleasure to love and children and once the pleasures of sex goes down, our marriages/relationships come apart and as a result, infidelity is rife in our time and is tearing our families and relationships apart.
An example is this: before the invention of the contraceptive pill and the sexual revolution which it helped bring about, marriages were sacred and survived most difficulties it faced. And divorce was quite very low. Relationship s were more valuable; we were a lot happier. But, all that changed with the advent of sexual revolution. And soon, people will prefer to have sex with machines rather than fellow humans. Soon, our sacred institution of marriage and family will become a distant memory.
The greats became great because they had control over their bodies, their cravings and cherrished self mortification. And when they enjoyed sex, they did in the most honorable way, the most dignified manner. So, much unlike us, the present age, who are willing to let our entire existence go in flames just so we could satisfy all our cravings. And how pathetic are we!
Believe me, people, our world, our lives will have greater and bigger, more lasting meaning, if we should exert a greater control over our cravings especially Sexual cravings which is both the most beautiful thing and the most dangerous thing in our lives.
Let us go back to our roots, the way it was in the days when human dignity and LOVE was all that mattered. Days when sex was secondary and love was primary. Those days when relationships were built on love and sex came as a blessing to that love and we were alot happier.
