A Message of Love

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , on July 23, 2010 | 2 Comments »

Since the web publication of my interview last Thursday, I have been swinging from the rooftops to the gutter and back up again. I always knew I would, so I am “comfortable” with this state of uncertainty.  I have lived through this many times. This is just a “mini-post”.  I have much to write about, [...]

I couldn’t believe it either.  Another rape has allegedly taken place. To think of all of this going on during such a poignant weekend in my home county is becoming too much to bear. I am sure that the facts about each of these cases will unfold during the fullness of time, and of course [...]

I May Not Be A Lady…

Recently, a very dear friend of mine, Olivia Mackinder, asked me on Twitter what my latest blog post would be about. I responded thoughtfully, “Femininity, Judgement and Listening.” “Quite an epic then!” She replied.  She wasn’t wrong. The truth is, there is so much going on in my life right now that I do not [...]

A Dialogue About Sex

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , , on June 22, 2010 | 9 Comments »

My throat is dry, my voice is shaking. It feels alien to me, as if it isn’t my own. It doesn’t sound like me. It sounds childlike. Fearful. I am uncomfortable. My solar plexus feels as if it will implode and somehow take me with it. How can I still feel so afraid? I feel [...]

Presents are wrapped, balloons tied up, everything is ready. So why am I crying? Tomorrow my first born, my little angel girl, is 3 years old. She went to creche today, dressed in her favourite outfit of jeans, grey and pink polka dot top, white fluffy coat and Hello Kitty trainers. We took cakes for [...]
