Freestyle #4

I was reading my favorite magazine, Cosmopolitan, and came across and interesting article. It was entitled "I Tried a Juice-Only Detox. And Yes, I'm Starving," by Jake Hurwitz, it was about a man who didn't understand why his girlfriend did such crazy things in order to stay healthy and look good. There were two sentences I found interesting, and very funny. The first was "But that day at lunch, I wanted to punch him in the face and steal his sandwich." He was talking about how his friend was eating a Philly cheese steak sandwich for lunch and that all could think about was ripping it out of his hands because he was so hungry. The second was "And from now on, I won't just tell her she's pretty. I'll tell her she's damn hot, because she is, and the stuff she goes through to feel good and healthy is hard."I think its important that not only did he write about how hard it was for him to go through with the Detox, but he also made that distinct connection with his girlfriend. He acknowledged her, and I find that to be the most important part of the article. He gained new respect for his girlfriend and actually understood her better. If only all men could do this...a walk in our shoes for one day...ah yes.
