The Metaphors

You’ve got to use your love muscle or it loses strength . . .

Muscle has memory, just like your brain . . . Your heart

is your greatest muscle. Without it, you miss the ball . . .

You gotta reset . . . You need to think about what’s in

your head and what’s getting in the way of the big hit . . .

Relationships are the same way . . . If you strike out, you’re

just plain doin’ something wrong. You’re not taking this

thing seriously . . . A bat is like cupid’s arrow . . . You only

have so many chances before you strike out . . . Ya know,

a fly ball is like a relationship; once it catches air, your

chances for a home run are pretty good . . . But, you can’t

miss her signal. If you do, you need to reset. It’s up to you

to hit the ball and run to first, slide into all the bases . . .

You keep striking out, you need to stop and think, what am

I doing wrong?

What am I doing wrong, Floyd? I ask.
