"Women are taught to
be too many things that
contradict each other, so
I've decided to just be
strange and powerful."
~Shatara Liora
Alas, methinks 'tis meant
to be humorous . . . but, in
my mind it makes so much
sense.
Perhaps, something to do
with so many trips around
the sun . . . 'bout 75 by now.
When I was a young lass,
the girls did inside work
and the boys, outside jobs.
Dads worked and moms
stayed home with babes
and housework.
I am ever so grateful that
my mom was proactive.
Went to college, worked
for the AEC, Atomic
Energy Commission for
30 years, divvied up the
housework and still read
every night.
What an example! I get
that a great deal of who I
am today is down to her.
Dear God, please tell her
I am ever so grateful!
