Met with Robin Morgan today for a conversation with DUs Women's Coalition. She was a key figure in the 1960's civil rights and anti-war movement. A former editor of Ms. Magazine. A founder of contemporary US Feminism.

Meeting her to discuss the current experience of women; what still needs to be; how we can get it done - was like walking into history.

She once said, "If I had to characterize one quality as the genius of feminist thought, culture, and action, it would be the connectivity."

Connect with a woman you know if you want to see real change occur in your life. Two women set on making change can accomplish great things. Imagine what a room full of women can do.

Writing to Heal and De-Stress

I took a class in my master's program called Writing and Healing. The list of required text included - Writing as a Way of Healing: How Telling Our Stories Transforms Our Lives by Louise DeSalvo. I highly recommend it. Some of the other students in the class thought she spent much too much time on her own depression, but it didn't bother me and I'm not a depressed person, she was just sharing her reality with the reader.
