difference between men and women

i get to know my wife
in our shared relationship
the best when we
get a bit hopped up on
some drink
and start reading
the news headlines online.

last night,
i pointed at a headline that said:
'WOMEN WORRY MORE THAN MEN, STUDY SAYS'

while my wife opened a story that said:
'BRAIN EATING AMOEBA KILLS SIXTH PERSON IN A WEEK'

and it's in these small moments of life
when we choose what aspects of life
we want to explore more
that i realize why i love
her and she ultimately
loves me
in all our
worry over alien amoebas
floating about this dangerous
world of ours.
