The wisdom I have acquired after 63years of life now leads me to stand up against the injustice done to unmarried mothers in those few horrible decades that saw millions of us losing our children.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07580241881953821182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33752164.post-77150026220233825522008-10-21T17:17:00.000-02:002008-10-21T17:17:00.000-02:00I love this blog.

A wise woman in her seventies, one of my dearest friends, likes to say that the goddess of wisdom, Athena, holds a a sword in one hand and with the other shields her own heart. Wisdom can look like cowardice to individuals given to bravado; I'm glad to know you're not one of them. mark matousek www.markmatousek.comMark Matousekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07396499660533356033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33752164.post-49072495833409369192008-10-21T13:09:00.000-02:002008-10-21T13:09:00.000-02:00Would that your dream came true.

I wish that it were reality, but fear that as long as women continue to buy the patriarchal mantra they will continue to put everyTHING ahead of what their body is telling them and start their families. Silly women. Our bodies are most fertile when we are young for a reason, and the fertile body demands attention. Patriarchy insists that the demands be denied as a way to redemption from the demands of the flesh. How stupid! The flesh demands because Nature intended us to continue the species when we are young. It is not a sin, it is just nature's way of continuing the species with healthy young. To deny nature while living up to some expectation of others that to do so makes you holy is absurd. All it makes you is in danger of not being able to produce your own healthy babes. When will women learn to listen to their bodies?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17088288948654864117noreply@blogger.com
