Dear Cupid,
Hey dude....
Down here...... yes. Let's discuss ur aim.
Ur arrows seem to miss the aim. Its either that, or my heart has become too wounded and broken with time, that it seems to be unable to hold/attach on to ur arrows so they bend the wrong way.
Isn't there a potion I can cook up like Penelope Cruz in "Woman on top", that I'll drink up one morning and end up with the whole male population in town following me to work? (Not that I want that creepy hot dog cart guy anywhere near me or my office!)
How about u come down here and we get down to business about my preferred "targets"?
Cupid.... u half-naked flying baby with a deadly weapon up there... listen to me, am 26, am single (and loved it until recently...) and I hate ur choice of men u keep sending my way! Take some shooting/aiming classes or somethin! Find urself more effective arrows!.....DO SOMETHING! My poor mother has started to lose hope she'll ever live to see her only daughter married, engaged, dating or in any healthy functioning relationship for that matter!!
Whats a woman to do to get a decent guy that can make me laugh, send me a dozen red roses and a box of rich chocolates on Valentine's day? haa?
If only they had them on purchase in the supermarket behind the chips aisle... "Availbale in every size, style, personality and flavour... and in aisle 23 we gotta special discount on the 'mama's -boy' type! "
Imagine that ! LOL
Urs, C.
P.S. I hope u were not offended :D
Happy Valentine's...

1001 questions
We are nothing. We are ignorant and weak and insignificant, full-stop. No matter how much we think we know, no matter how great we think we are, we have been fooled by the lies we planted-and-watered inside our own minds.
Those lies tend to convince someone he is something, when he is anything but that. Why would a person turn out to become an arrogant person after all? Who and what does that person think he really is? How much, or how little, does that person know about the eating habits of a platypus or a stag-beetle? Does he know anything about baptism? What about anthropomorphism? Does he know anything about that? Would he be able to create a rocket engine? Or even fix it? I wonder how much does he know about the great Mayan civilisation? Or how far will he go in translating the Sumerian cuneiform inscriptions into modern day languages? How much does he know about how the world is truly run? Ever heard of corporatocracy? How much does that person know about the Yuga Cycle? Atomic orbitals? Extra-solar planets? How much does he know about running a government? How little does he know about anything at all? A thousand question-marks for emphasis.
After all, countless issues such as human fate and destiny, the future, the human spirit and its essence, the size of the ever-expanding universe, God's true nature, are beyond our combined cognitive capabilities to grasp. So if you think you know more than people, think again. You are wrong. You do not know more than they do; they know less than you. You are not more knowledgeable than they are; they are more ignorant than you.
That said, what about physical strength? I wonder why would someone ever think he has no physical like? Or that he is an unbeatable being? Does that person know that the strongest man on Earth is physically weaker than the weakest horse? And that an average gorilla is eight times stronger than the strongest man? Or that in a hand-to-hand combat, no person would ever defeat the average Red Kangaroo of Australia? If that is the case with average-strength animals, how weak would we seem if compared to the mightiest animals? How weak would we be as compared to the Jinn? And how would our combined physical strengths compare to God's guardians? Or to God himself?
A few years ago, I was an extremely judgmental person always judging people's actions, their ethical, and their religious beliefs. How close-minded and ignorant and 'stupid' of me? And for that matter, for anyone who is like how I was. How much does a person know about other moral and religious rites? For after all, morals do change from one place to the other on this planet. Did you know it is neither illegal nor unethical to kill your son or daughter in the Arctic if you sensed they will not survive the winter blizzards? Does that make the Arctic Eskimos brutal and unethical savages? Does that make them trivial and regressive people? Or does that only make them different? We are in absolutely no position to judge who is right and who is wrong. We are in no position to judge what is right and what is wrong either. We are in no position to judge, and this is why we have the ultimate day we call 'Judgment Day'.
The bottom line is this: arrogance is only a figment of our own imaginations. It is a fake notion attempting to make us feel or seem better and bigger than we really are. We are no better than anyone else. We are all equal. Below the dirt, we are all buried in the same manner: dead and helpless and naked; the white, the black, the rich, the poor, the homosexual, the king, the Christian, the Muslim, etc. In Judgment Day, we will be judged accordingly and will then be differentiated from one another. But until then, we are all as equal as the size of the following two dots are..
