A couple nights ago on TV 20/20 or one of those TV magazines ran an
article about short men.  A group of men were in a line up beyond one
way glass at a dating service and attractive young women were rating and
choosing.  The short guy got no interest. Even though they told the
women the short guy was a Doctor, head of department, acclaimed author
and more he wasn't chosen.  Even when told he was a millionaire by 25. 
Oh, that got a little interest, but still the woman wanted taller men.
However go to a city mall and you see short men with taller women all
the time. Hope springs eternal.

As in ALL areas of life, "life if not fair."  The best we can do is make
the best of what we get delt.  I won't burden you with all the problems
my husband and I have, but luckily we have each other.  Life hasn't been
fair in our situations, but we band together and go forward. 

I wasn't born beautiful, tall, rich, well endowed, smart....so what!  We
can start a "poor, poor pitiful me" (I heard that in a song) club or we
can join together and spead romance and love, each in our own small
way.  Maybe by just posting an encouraging word, or an I've been there
before comment to this and other similar news groups we'll overcome
prejidices and be thankful for all we do have.  Tis the season.
