Alopecic and cantankerous admirer

    Only two days into our Holy Week retreat, let me tell you a story, too short don't worry,  and this is so because as 
I am writing I am also spray-painting our dinning table and while waiting for it to dry and put some finishing touches.


     One day GGL, a lady in her late twenties,  not lacking in glaring beauty, emancipated yet modest in behavior but assertive and inquisitive.  One morning, while going to work GGL looked happy and very excited that when she arrived in the office she was greeted by her office-mates  who were also wondering about her excitement.  After the hi's and oh's she opened up, "You know I'm very happy today, I tell you, I finally found my man". "Wow! tell us who he is,"chorused the crowd.  "Secret" she replied  "But just the same I'll tell you."
"He is a certified bachelor, though 20 years my senior, he is wealthy, and famous.  And most of all looked very respectable and caring.  That just by sitting with him in our dates I experienced some kind of rare clitoric flush. "Wow, so we can expect an altar date." was the crowd's reply. "Well, that is the big question mark." was GGL's polite answer.


     The Gypsy trip


     The next day being Saturday she went with a friend to a well-known fortune teller in a nearby town.
     The gypsy woman in her late fifties welcomed them into her house. " Beautiful woman what is your problem?" greeted the fortune teller.  GGL narrated her story to the gypsy. Halfway in her narration the aging woman went inside her room and in a little while was back with her famed crystal ball and put the same on a table.  For some moments  she closed her eyes as in deep meditation- a trance. Then she said, "This is not a guessing game."  "By our rites here I'll prove to you the truth and nothing but the truth" she explained.


     "This man you said you finally found to be caring and exciting may not really be true to you." GGL's eyes twirled around the four corners of the house.  Placing her palm over the crystal ball she said, " I can see this alopecic and cantankerous bachelor man a mere admirer of you. You  might have noticed when you went on your dates, despite your promptings and hints to let him talk about love, passions and desires, he would go on talking about the power of his newly acquired car and his arsenal of rare firearms." the fortune teller narrated.


    "So my final advice to you, go easy on him. No serious drag because I can see the door is open for you to go the way of the girls he admired and gone."  "What is alopecic and cantankerous admirer Madam?" asked GGL.  "I do not know ask your friends Ok?  And lastly I do not ask for money please pray for me." Too short you can forget it next week when you are at the retreat house.
