The markers of my womanhood

The first time I skinned my knee

Or the first time I scored a touch down

The first girl I kissed

The markers of my womanhood

The first uninvited touch

The fights about my cloths

The first shrink I had

The markers of my womanhood

The first skateboard I made in woodshop

My first motorcycle

How 501’s hang on my hips

The markers of my Womanhood

The first time security was called in the restroom

Realizing my womanhood threatened yours

The markers of my Womanhood

Learning that the illusion of my

Womanhood Lie’s between your

eyes and my body….

Sometimes the best way to contribute to a more peaceful world is simply to let love pour from your heart. Even the smallest of gestures can shine a light on someone in such a way that it can heal them, & sometimes you are doing nothing at all but letting love flow to that person, or just out into the world, forgetting for a moment all the things that seem wrong.
~Sherri Lane~

Ms. Meander · 02-23-2011, 07:08 AM

To be fully alive, fully human, and completely awake is to be continually thrown out of the nest. To live fully is to be always in no-man's-land, to experience each moment as completely new and fresh. To live is to be willing to die over and over again.
- Pema Chödrön
