Now, what does that mean? To me, in simple terms, its like having a party. Sometimes the biggest joys come from the planning and preparing, rather than the actual party!
Yesterday, I read the new book by Danielle Steel, "Power Play". what i found fascinating was her take on the two main characters and their differences. Both are powerful CEOs in major corporations. Both do their job very well, are very successful. The male is married, with a corporate wife as a partner. The female is divorced, raised her kids as a single mom. He was seduced with all the power into believing he was powerful, and risked everything with affairs and having a second family in another part of the state. She was so focused on being a good CEO and single mom, that she didn't have time for a relationship for herself. What it comes down to is men in power turn it sexual, there seems to be a link between power and sex for males. While women do the opposite, wanting to avoid the sexual complications that come with being so powerful.
As with all of her stories, there was a happy ending for the female character, finding love in an unexpected relationship. The male? When the shit hit the fan, his corporate board demanded he clean up his act; he asked his wife for a divorce, went to the mistress to start a new life, who turned him down as well. In the end, he changed jobs, moved to another city, and started the cycle all over again.
Must have been a good book, I read it in a single day. :)
