Christmas time is here oh yes the song of the old but memorable tune written by
Vince Guaraldi 
 
" Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
 Fun for all
that children call
Their favorite time of the year..."
 
 seems to sum up the sweet poignant sentiment of the season. the hustle and bustle of post-Thanksgiving shoppers, trying to work off those extra pounds gained form feasting on sumptuous meals with friends and families alike. 
 
Or maybe just to get in on some deals they feel they will miss out on if they don't get out in the crowds. But some feel it's a tradition to brave the wild wind, getting up, coffee in hand to greet the dawn amidst the cast of thousands out in the malls to do the deeds of "Black Friday,"  the retailers orgasmic delight. 
But when all  the chaos is over and the dust settles, 
I still like the images and the mellow moods in this video. Of quiet sleigh rides, trimming the tree, and baking. Mmmm it can evoke such memories or peace, joy, love, or well, you get the picture.
And now for your listening and viewing pleasure, I give you  the beautiful soulful voice of Ms Toni Braxton singing  Vince Guaraldi's , Christimas Time is Here.

What is Sexy to you?

What is Sexiness

What is Sexy?

 There are many opinions as to what someone finds sexy in another. I find that, for me, there is no set button that one can push, to get me " doe-eyed" or can send shivers down my arms all the time.  I am learning, that I am attracted to mental strength and an arresting gaze. Those two, seem to catch my notice and then I am looking to find out more about them-- I think is true for the majority of people. We all have our 'triggers' that's only human nature. To borrow a turn of phrase: "The Law of attraction", certainly applies here.

Many people have figured out, that what is sexy, is nothing more than confidence. Some have not and are ever chasing something, that is in most cases,  is transitory. The external or physical beauty. I think that in order to be attractive externally, you have to be attractive internally. It is that "inner peace", or joy, or the "it factor," that draws people to to you and say "Man, they're pretty." or "Wow they are so smart." or successful.

So are we saying?  Is Sexiness, what someone exudes,  or "puts our there"makes them appealing? Or is it their confidence, or a combination of all of the above-- Inner happiness, confidence and or visual beauty? what do you think?

For this installment, I'd like to give a male and a female example of "sexiness". I think these two individuals are persons that have all the aforementioned qualities. Enjoy ;)
