The Male-female Relationship
a: The male-female relationship ~
b: a flower
What: "I have been shown that the male-female relationship is like that of a flower. The male is the stalk that holds the flower high. However, it is the flower and its petals that open and close daily. It is the flower that regulates life, that provides the pollen carried by the bees to create new life in the plant kingdom."

Child Rearing Experience Is Like A Blacksmiths For
a: Child rearing experience ~
b: a blacksmiths forge
What: "When a parent, in particular women dedicate their lives to juggling the unpaid job of raising their children and for most working a fulltime paid job on the side so to speak. They frequently blossom artistically or otherwise in whatever endeavor they so choose after their child rearing is no longer the primary focus of their lives. This child rearing experience is like a blacksmiths forge breaking them down and recreating them to be more pliable, more malleable, and stronger than ever. "

METAMIA is a free database of analogy
and metaphor. Anyone can contribute or search.
The subject matter can be anything.
Science is popular, but poetry is encouraged.
The goal is to integrate our fluid muses with
the stark literalism of a relational database.
Metamia is like a girdle for your muses,
a cognitive girdle.
