Do you like Pina Colada's?

Do you remember the old 70's song entitled "The Pina Colada Song"?

The song tells the story of a man and a woman who've lost the "magic" of their relationship and in the pre-electronic age of the 70's took out a "personal ad" in their local newspaper...for you younger folks think Craig's List or Match.com...

In her Ad she writes:

"If you like Pina Coladas
And getting caught in the rain
If you're not into yoga
If you have half a brain
If you'd like making love at midnight
In the dunes on the Cape
Then I'm the love that you've looked for
Write to me and escape"


After reading the ad he responds:

"Yes I like Pina Coladas
And getting caught in the rain
I'm not much into health food
I am into champagne
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon
And cut through all this red-tape
At a bar called O'Malley's
Where we'll plan our escape."


They meet in the bar and realize the love that they were DREAMING of had been at their side all along.

Many marriages fall into a similar routine where couples just take each other for granted not realizing that the TRUE man or woman of your dreams is already right by your side!

So...do something crazy...share a Pina Colada...take a walk in the rain or snow...make love tonight at midnight (even though its SOOOO late) just do something that reminds you that you did marry the man or woman of your dreams!

Celebrate!
