Bricks and Roses

Book Cover & Preview Text
One of the results that
occurs from the fact that most of us don't understand the differences between
the genders is that many of us fail in any effort to develop a meaningful
male-female relationship. We tend to exist in a realm of our life that is way short
of what it could be. I am amazed when I think of present day conveniences and
compare that thought with the information about life styles only 100 years ago.
Humanly, we take for granted our modern conveniences and the reduced workload
that they provide.
On this subject I can
speak to you from my own experience because in my past I have been deficient in
the area of understanding the differences. One of my problems is that I spent
way too much time in the rut of modern life. All of our present conveniences,
instead of freeing me, gave me more time with which I involved myself with
numerous projects, I was "too busy". To busy to take the time needed
to learn. Being intelligent but ignorant about females and also being a
ego-male, I, mentally, was unable to make any positive changes in my life in
male, female relationships. Therefore
my failings, in trying to maintain a healthy relationship with the female
gender didn't register, in my thinking, as a personal problem. Though I was
beginning to realize something was definitely wrong, I did not know what and,
really did not want to know what, the problem was. So, in my case, I remained
lost in my own ways. There were no changes in my beliefs or behavior. In all
honesty, after having been dumped a time or two, my first thoughts were;
"What the hell is wrong with her"! After you have read this far I'm
sure that you are able to observe by my keen mind set and can see that I
definitely had no ability to understand and comprehend the nature and needs of
women.

About the Book
Bricks and Roses approaches the differences between men and women in their nature from a unique viewpoint. Men are and should be similar to bricks in their strength, solidarity and ability to protect themselves and their family. Women are the multifaceted beauty of humanity. Because they are the wellspring of life they require protection, understanding, appreciation and love. These factors create for her the environment she needs to enable her to produce offspring. Understanding and adopting positive characteristics and behaviors makes life enjoyable and fulfilling.
Bricks and Roses is an analogy about male and female nature and characteristics. Dysfunction in both men and woman with respect to relationships between them is evident in most marriages. Children are the innocent victims of the parent’s negative traits. You can have a better, happier and more enjoyable life when you understand how and why you should be like a brick and a rose.
