when i was a child my parents were determined to teach me how to ski.
apparently i was to love it.
and eventually i did. of course, my love for skiing was a direct result of all the medication that the first aid staff gave me to help stop the bleeding, buts that neither her nor there right now.
the reason i bring this up is a memory i have of a young man who was with me in ski school.
rich and arrogant, this little fella swore that he didnt to take any ski lessons.
why?
because he had read books on the subject, and therefore knew all there was to know about skiing. "so show me the slopes man!"
he laid there with me for a while at the first aid hut.
flash forward to today.
it is now my realization that, surprise surprise, i know nothing about either women or relationships.
now i know that as a guy i am probably not supposed to know anything about women.
and i also know that since i have never had a girlfriend before, i shouldnt have to be knowledgable when it comes to relationships.
but i've read books, man.
and as a result of reading these books i have given out the impression over the years of being someone who understood. someone who freely gave out advice concerning matters of the heart.
and now, as i lay face down and bleeding in the proverbial snow, i realize how wrong, how severely wrong i was.
"true wisdom is the knowledge that you know nothing"-someone much more intelligent than i.
perhaps this is the humble start to my career as "Ryan: bestest lover in the world."
or maybe i should just wait for the medication to wear off and see if i still have a leg to stand on.
either way, i have a ton of books about relationships that are free for anyone who wants them.
now, if i just had a way to end this entry.....
