  • People get so busy doing routine things that they neglect what's really important, like relationships. Sometimes we need to take time to reorganize our priorities before lose those we love (and take too much for granted).

  • "Gonna post a vacancy sign under the covers." Sounds like a threat. Well said! It's come a long way from a similar theme in "See It Through My Eyes" called "Your Attention" where she said, "If you don't give me your attention, I'll get attention from somebody else."

  • Days continue to contain 24 hours in each and every one. But people's expectations of what they should be able to accomplish in those hours may have changed, especially for women. Traditionally women have taken the greater responsibility for maintaining relationships, but something has to give when they try to live up to today's expectations. Relationships are everyone's responsibility. Don't blame someone else if you haven't made an effort!
