Apples & Wine

This, from my niece Gwen, is the first email that moved me to tears and laughter - all at the same time!

Apples & Wine
Women are like apples on trees.
The best ones are the top of the tree.
Most men don't want to reach for the good ones
because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt.
Instead, they sometimes take the apples from the ground
that aren't as good, but are easy.
The apples at the top think something is wrong with them,
when, in reality, they're amazing.
They just have to wait for the right man to come along,
the one who is brave enough to climb all the way
to the top of the tree.

Now men...
men are like a fine wine.
They begin as grapes,
and it's up to women
to stomp the shit out of them
until they turn into
something acceptable
to have dinner with!
