Comments on: The Post-Modern Quaker Mother’s Dilemna http://www.ajschwanz.com/2009/01/22/the-post-modern-quaker-mothers-dilemna/ Wed, 06 Jan 2010 05:00:10 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: Hystery http://www.ajschwanz.com/2009/01/22/the-post-modern-quaker-mothers-dilemna/comment-page-1/#comment-10491 Hystery Sun, 25 Jan 2009 16:09:22 +0000 http://www.ajschwanz.com/?p=329#comment-10491 This reminds me of a moment yesterday after I read about the killing of 14 wolf pups, execution style, in Alaska. I got that feeling you get when your heart feels so full of anger and sadness that it might just burst and I stood there all lonely and sad looking out a window and thought that my heart was just too big for my body. Then it hit me: I need a bigger body! Reaching out to others, sharing what I have learned to do, hearing what they have to teach me and reading blogs like this makes me more hopeful and more charged and more ready to get to work. It helps me remember that humans are not meant to be alone in their troubles. We need to grow as communities of learners, of reformers, of do-ers. So thank you. I needed this.

No, that was meant for Jenn because her response to "What do we do now?" was "I'm not going to start making my own tortillas." I didn't want her to think I stole her material. :) Official Announcement: Jenn does not make her own tortillas.

No, that was meant for Jenn because her response to “What do we do now?” was “I’m not going to start making my own tortillas.” I didn’t want her to think I stole her material. :)
