Many years ago, my mother and I were visiting my aunt in Illinois and driving through a small town not far from where she lived. Just days before, it had been hit by a tornado. Some houses on one side of the street were leveled; others on the opposite side, it was as if nothing had ever happened. I’ve never seen a real flood, and am sure it’s different, but is there a similar randomness to the water levels from street to street? Anyway, glad you’re okay and able to help others who were hit harder.

As to the “drought-flood” analogy with sex, I’ve experienced both sides of it, and I would agree: much has to do with the intensity of desire and the priority you put on it. And for myself, and my wife too, tastes change with time. Our bodies change, too, as in “how much of a good thing” you can handle. There’s a certain, hard to define knack to getting it right, and none of us do that all the time. It keeps things interesting.

They are some of the most self-less folks I know.

If any of the locals happen to see them in Texas, tell ’em Jason sends love from the homefront!

But we are still the couple. Music , and creation generally, is a good supplement for missing.

Yes, I think it is. I believe it’s how much emphasis you place on sex, which can happen whether you’re a glutton or starved. That said, I think the sex-starved spouses have more of my compassion, in the sense that they have a particularly difficult challenge. My heart goes out to you. And I do think leaning on God is the answer. Many blessings!

I know this from my personal experience. Only recently I have been learning to be content with my sex life and lean on God for meeting my personal needs.

Our houses fared well, but two streets over there was a lot of damage. That’s how it is down here, for the most part, where a few houses within a neighborhood got hit hard. Thanks, Ngina!

Thank you for this testimony! I’m sure that drought was hard, but I’m glad you (both) found the other side.

For a couple of years now the flood gates have opened. Last week I thought that I have finally been satisfied. I am not saying that I don’t need anymore sex, but I am saying that I am not sex starved anymore.
