Images of young, gorgeous, perfect-bodied, women in bikinis only make me think of one thing: a big ol’ pile of puppies.

You see a pile of puppies and think they are all cute. None are the same, but they all look adorable and you want one. Perhaps you want to take one home, or maybe just pick it up and hold it for a while, but we all have the urge to caress them. It gives us joy. However, all of them eventually turn into something else. We can also love that something they turn into, but it won’t be the same cute, adorable thing they were when they were young; they will be adorable for something different then.

There’s your daily metaphor.
