Part of me longs for what only now seems like the simplicity of tiny children you could keep track of, knew every breath they took and could imagine their safety and have some sence that things could be controled in a pinch. But now with girls in their twenties, a time I longed for when I was a young mother, I find these times of mothering deeply hard to traverse. Young women in our society facing a bankrupt American dream and a planet spinning out of control. Helping them find balance and a spiritual center through it all is daunting. So I am writing to say bravo to your wonderful blog and to you publishable writing. You are talented. Today I am living the turn of the wheel with my dying mother so I have a very different blog if you want to visit and as a writer I share many aspects of what it means to live in transformative time....Mothers are the bravest of the brave...thank you for your heart felt contribution. <BR/>Dr. Maya Christobel www.theheartspace.wordpress.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8696496724271056053.post-60485145235490240232008-08-25T22:10:00.000-07:002008-08-25T22:10:00.000-07:00Oh boy....I feel your hurt.

Hopefully it will get better as they make friends and grow attached to people there. In the meantime - I'm so sorry. Hope it all went okay at the pickup.Clarouxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08973040929333439201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8696496724271056053.post-71089326784544728562008-08-25T19:08:00.000-07:002008-08-25T19:08:00.000-07:00I don't have words, just support.
