Full of restlessness, I sit here and think of all the things I would like to do this season, be it alone or with someone special. This time of the year makes my adrenaline rush in anticipation of doing exciting and different things, and each year, I strive to include one really memorable event, as my lifestyle and budget will allow. Of course, if I had lots of money, I could do much, much more, or so I imagine…

We are creative in our imaginations, but, usually when two or more get together, unless they have something planned, it is like, “What should we do?” or “What do you want to do?” or every time you suggest something, someone goes, “Nah.” So, thinking is not good enough, therefore I have found a site which features 500 LIST OF FUN THINGS TO DO!!!

Some of the stuff is typical, some is not, and what I like the most about it is that it is broken down into categories, such as adventure, boredom, kids, and so forth, with a list under each heading. I thought it was pretty useful, certainly one has something to play with, and can create something out of it, I am sure…

Then I found this information which doesn’t really rock me, but, is useful for couples and Summer fun… Frugal Fun.com …

Some of the ideas from this site are as follows:

* Swim together and take turns throwing each other in the water, giving each other piggy-back rides, or just hugging tightly while you stand in cool water up to your chin.

* Throw on some rock and roll, pull the shades, and dance together (clothing optional).

* Dim the lights and do a sexy striptease for your partner

* A deep, relaxing, lengthy massage

* Work up a really good sweat together with your favorite outdoor activity–and then cool off in the bathtub.

* Write a poem or song together, and perform it for each other

* Go out for an early morning hike, before it gets too hot

I have a few of my own, such as get out and have some fun, playing Frisbee, or riding bicycles, walking, playing ball or something, work up a good sweat, come home, take a shower together with luscious coconut oil or some such scent of Summer, then give each other a massage, and finish with ice cubes rubbed on certain parts of the body…

Take a swim together in a private pool with sheer swimsuits, play keep away and other such games, so that you are jumping and chasing, then get out of the pool, have a cool drink, use some of the nectar of your favorite mix to pour on each other, and well, you get the idea…

Like I said, the imagination makes it seem so simple to fulfill the restlessness of Summer, but, too often when it comes to making decisions, we are lost in the options. Perhaps this list will help some, I know it will help me…

Each Summer brings with it, romantic ideals and fantasies, each of which one hopes will come true…

Simple things like dancing in the moonlight on a hot, starry night, just two people entwined in the mystical magic of the moment, or a starlit cruise on a boat, then anchoring, listening to some excellent mood music, sipping champagne, and feeding chocolate dipped strawberries to each other, or having a party for couples with romantic themes, which are a lot of fun, and can truly be memorable…

One of my favorite times in the Summer is an annual trip to Chicago. It is a romantic setting, if you are downtown and near some of the nightlife and Navy Pier. The Pier is a great place;featuring eating establishments,a few bars, a beer garden, outside vendors, boutiques, shops, entertainment, rides, a tropical atrium, and lots and lots of people, some lovers, some seeking love. If the weather is great, which it usually is when I go there, it is such a great experience. Chicago has a lot to offer, and the nightlife is top notch. I take the train, cabs, walk, and experience the Summer heat in the city…

Taking short trips in the Summer is a great way for couples to reconnect, have some fun, do something different, enjoy each other, as companions and as lovers. There are so many great places to go, even if only for the night, it is worth the effort; the fun you share will be there to relive when times seem less than perfect…

Where I live there are lots of quaint little places on the water. You just pack up a small overnight bag, some swimwear, lingerie, some sexy clothes for the two of you, some necessities, some surprises, and off you go to horizons unexplored. Taking long walks on the beach, a romantic dinner, some dancing, and simply doing whatever you want, if only for a night, refreshes and stimulates the entire senses, which means heightened feelings of desire, closer feelings of togetherness, and memories which bind the pages of your life…

Summer makes us feel sexier, it opens up more avenues to stroll and explore, and when you share it with someone who touches your soul, Summer is sexy, Summer is when dreams are realized…

I just came from a festival downtown where there were hundreds of thousands of people. Our city just opened a 7 mile or better walkway along the waterfront, which is very beautiful and very active, plus, the area for festivals is almost in the center of the walkway. We have festivals almost every weekend all Spring and Summer, plus an air show, the Grand Prix, and other activities. It is a great way to spend the days of the warm season…

One thing I noticed today was how many couples were out and about. From teens to the elderly; some holding hands, some with arms around each other, some stopping for kisses, some eating, some drinking, some dancing, some just hangin’ out. There seemed to be a lot of romance and love in the air, and, it was nice to sit and watch. I love watching people anyway, and such events is a perfect time to take in some good old fashioned expressions of affection and love…

I think it is great that couples go to such places as this walkway, which has many spots to sit, trees, and a few outdoor cafes, music, artists, photographers, vendors, and all sorts of activity going on. There are fountains, flowers, the water, and more; Canada is across the waterway, their downtown is a nice background; on the water are boats, seagulls, tankers, freighters, and other interesting points… . It is indeed, a romantic setting for two who need to spend the day or evening taking in the sights and sounds, take a walk, and just be lovers in love..

When couples go to such a place, they are bonding, for as they walk, they talk, they discuss, they share that around them, they are building memories and they are sharing quality times. I believe every couple should walk together in a nice setting as often as possible, daily if can be, but, at least once a week. It is a healthy way to spend time alone, plus, it can be fun and exciting too…

Quality times are very important in a relationship. It doesn’t matter if you are together all the time, or if you hardly see each other, those special quality times are what make you closer, more secure, and happier, and, a certain appreciation for each other is derived from the time, which makes romance flow more frequently and more naturally…

It doesn’t matter what you are into, some couples are boaters, some are bikers, some coach teams together, some are joggers, some are walkers, some take photos together, some are campers, some are simply happy hangin’ out; you need these times together, they are so important to life, to love, and to romance…

Lots of couples here walk together every evening, there is a 25 mile park here, and it runs through several towns, actually quite a few of them. People will go through the trails and woods, come into a town, grab an ice cream cone or something and walk back, usually about 2-8 miles an evening. Healthy, and stimulating for the body, the senses, the mind, and the spirit. A couple who shares these benefits definitely has more to share in the later hours of the night…

Whatever the two of you are into, make it a habit to do it together, enjoy the times spent, and become closer as friends, lovers and as one. These are the times of your life, make them count, and make them a platform on which to keep the love flowing effortlessly, and the romance sizzling…

Sex or making love? Lust or passion? Can they be the same thing? Of course, within the boundaries of a relationship, yes! With someone new or a one night stand, we pretty much know the answer, although, if it is like meant to be, or love at first sight, then it could still be possible to have all 4…

Sex is sex, but making love is sex personified. Lust is a great motivator, but passion is the euphoric high before, during, and after the fact. Passion, like love, has many facets and is a necessary emotion to have and to develop. Some are more passionate than others, for instance, the Italians, the Greeks, and even some European cultures are very ingrained with the passions of life, love and liberty…

I am very passionate, I have been all of my life, and have embraced its purpose for the long haul. Passion can create problems as well as pleasure, for passions run deep, and often bear the head of temper, though, that is just how it appears, still passionate people are moved to expression very easily and if compelled, it could very well be temper.

Passion is the melody and beat of music, the fine strokes of the painters brush, the flowing words of a writer, the sultry dance of the dancer, and the soft sounds of a lover…

Passion is about feeling, expressing, living. It is the full throttle experience, it is the essence of the experience itself, often felt prior to the experience. Passion is a very deep and winding emotion, which begins at the soul and is not satisfied until it has landed in the depths of another soul. Passion is inflamed with delivery, with purpose, with exactness of the feelings which drive it….

I often wonder what makes some so passionate and others so passive. It seems to me that everyone should possess passion in the highest forms for it is the gifter of all pleasure, the creator of the full experience of life, love, and liberty, indeed…
