My years of performing in and Directing the Vagina Monologues was just the beginning... <br /><br />I am fascinated, too, by the hands in your painting. I have been in quite the "hand" phase since Art Every Day Month started. It is like hands have taken over my life....<br /><br />So great to be found by you after all these years. You and your little girl look content and grounded.

I have printed out your list and stuck it on my writing desk wall as there are so many valuable thoughts in there, which I could sometimes do with being reminded of!Milenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16257728004884944098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6914291490673940304.post-61897681324645944102009-11-20T12:05:28.914-06:002009-11-20T12:05:28.914-06:00Thank you for sharing!

Whether it be a novel, self help, or inspirational book I take tidbits or "notes" from the books I read and have begun to compile them into a journal for my daughter. I always tell my 14 yr old daughter to be true to herself in every decision she makes so that she can look back and say she made the right choices with dignity. Another thing I did for my daughter was have a gathering of all the women in her life thus far to celebrate her around her 13th birthday. It was a celebration of her and our female selves. I loved reading your thoughts on this subject.

I have often thought in recent years with the boom of reality TV especially - HOW on Earth did it get to be a GOOD, AMUSING, REWARDING thing to play it dumb as women like Jessica Simpson, Paris Hilton/Nicole Richie, etc.?????Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12881841332742313126noreply@blogger.com
