I find very few flaws in the logic of Leslie Bennetts in her book FEMININE MISTAKE, THE: ARE WE GIVING UP TOO MUCH?
Her logic is such that I find myself saying, She’s right. Why did I make such a self-defeating choice to quit my fulltime professional newspaper job?
Until the chapter where she reminds me why, […]

What the Bleep Do We Know!?
Quantum Physics.
I’m fascinated by quantum physics. Near as I can tell quantum physicists are on a search for God and they’ve found him. Not so as they can prove he exists to YOU, but they’ve definitely been close enough that there’s no doubt in their own minds.
Two things in this […]

I’m in the middle of FEMININE MISTAKE, THE: ARE WE GIVING UP TOO MUCH?
Leslie Bennetts, the author brings up the idea that, as she puts is, motherhood is a Temp Job.
Being a mom is a temp job, and if you take that temp job and become completely dependent on your spouse, that makes you so […]

At the end of the last A New Earth Webcast Oprah asked Eckhart Tolle how old he is.
Can you guess?
I thought he was in his 40s. Really.
Close? Not even.
This body is 60 years old, he said.
UGH!I actually inhaled shocked breath.
Not that it matters to me how old he is, but he is very young looking.
Oprah […]

I’ve not yet read the new feminist manifesto, The Feminine Mistake by Leslie Bennetts, citing the difficult to refute reasons why women shouldn’t commit to a life as a stay-at-home mom (or apparently any variation therein including part-time or work-from-home mom). My Australian Feminist Mommy counter-part Blue Milk did such an in-depth review of this book, I would […]

I love Eckhart Tolle’s take on time in The New Earth. Basically its futile and self defeating to focus on the past - because you have no power to change it and it happened how it was supposed to happen. And it’s futile and self defeating to focus on the future because you’re missing right now. […]
