I finally reached the level of adulting where I don't burn my grilled cheese anymore - a small but significant attainment!
Attainment is a tricky word, It's harder to say than a soaring bird, If you try to say it too fast, You'll find your tongue in a twist at last. But if you take it slow and steady, You'll find yourself feeling quite ready, To say attainment with a smile, And show off your tongue-twisting style!
Romantic love allows you to focus mating energy. Attachment sustains that relationship as long as necessary to raise your baby.
