Inarticulate Speech of the Heart

I write entirely to find out what I'm thinking, what I'm looking at, what I see and what it means. What I want and what I fear. ~Joan Didion

"Girls are taking over!"

I stumbled on this article today and am truly excited over this revelation:

"Society's pressures have created a new ideal female. Nerdiness -- caring about school -- is now mandatory for the cool female, along with the typical desired traits of attractiveness and sociability. Instead of the movies' airhead cheerleader as the popular campus queen, in the modern day, the admired female is smart, concerned about school and active in achieving her success."

Fellow Nerd Girls Kick Ass!

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?****** ~ Marianne Williamson

LIFE"S PHILOSOPHY

****

Three passions have governed my life:

The longings for love, the search for knowledge,and unbearable pity for the suffering of humankind.

Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness. In the union of love I have seen in a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.

With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of people. I have wished to know why the stars shine.

Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens, but always pity brought me back to earth; cries of pain reverberated in my heart of children in famine, of victims tortured, and of old people left helpless. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.

This has been my life; I found it worth living.
