religion

I am amazed at the lack of tolerance religious people show others. When i talk to someone i dont constantly think of what their beliefs are, and i rarely tell them mine. I dont ask theirs as it has not bearing on my relationship with them.
So why is it so many people not only want to know Mine, but judge me incompetent in all other areas when its not the same as theirs? I know they dont ask cashiers, waiters, Drs, nurses, cops what THEIR religious beliefs are..so why is it mine is important? As a midwife, you are hiring ME for my skills to SAVE a life. I have emergency skills to use at births that you pay me for.... why does it matter WHO i pray to?????

So..please... STOP making my beliefs the defining issue!!!

stuff

I am enrolled in a program to get my BS in midwifery. Its been a tough 3 weeks with microbiology!!
I have enjoyed the information but it sure has been tough juggling everything. If i could just take a weekend break on the beach and talk to noone..i think i would come back feeling wonderful.

Im glad Bones the TV show is back..i download it every week from ITunes and watch some interesting things. I like the bones part but i aint so crazy about the squishy parts.

I rescued another neo.. she is a tawny and is 3 yo. She has adjusted well and my other Neo sophie, hasnt quite figured out why she is here. They get along and having the both of them pounce on my bed to sleep is quite an experience. I love big dogs but they sure take up space without apology!!

I love this song..and it speaks a lot about how i felt when my 25 year marriage began to dissolve...

""It's hard to listen to a hard hard heart
Beating close to mine
Pounding up against the stone and steel
Walls that I won't climb
Sometimes a hurt is so deep deep deep
You think that you're gonna drown
Sometimes all I can do is weep weep weep
With all this rain falling down



Strange how hard it rains now
Rows and rows of big dark clouds
When I'm holding on underneath this shroud
Rain

Its hard to know when to give up the fight
Two things you want will just never be right
Its never rained like it has to night before
Now I don't wanna beg you baby
For something maybe you could never give
I'm not looking for the rest of your life
I just want another chance to live

Strange how hard it rains now
Rows and rows of big dark clouds
When I'm holding on underneath this shroud
Rain

Womens Security Council

Interesting!!!



Women's Security Council

Welcome!

The basis of American democracy is that when the government ceases to work for the people, the people have a right to start a new one. The US government has had almost 300 years to begin to work for women, and we are unsatisfied with the state of women and children, the poor and the elderly, the minority religions and races, and the disabled in this country. To improve the lives of Americans of every age, race and gender, we propose to institute a new form of consensus government, based on the original American democracy, that of the Indigenous tribes like the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) which have both male and female bodies of government that work in complimentary ways.

The Women's Security Council is intended to be a sort of women's Congress that will reach out to the disenfranchised among us who don't have lobbyists and corporations working for them. We also intend to speak for those who have no voice, the flora and fauna, our land, our rivers, streams and oceans, the Planet and the air around Her, as a part of the sacred trust that women owe to Mother Earth. We love our country but we are also Matriots and as women we recognize that all children are our children and we are members of the global community, without limits or borders, that is Womanhood.

We invite you to join us in this quest to return government to the hands of the American people and to speak for the least among us.

Illegal to think

Thinking for yourself is now a crime

Will it son become illegal to say anything or believe in anything the government has not sanctioned? Will our voices soon be stamped out because we tell our truth??

More info on the HPV Vaccine

The Great HPV Vaccine Hoax Exposed

What is s sad is the voices who were against the mandatory use as well as voluntary use of HPV were ignored and often called anti-woman... now what do we do?
We demand those who pushed this through to be held accountable for the deaths of many young girls and women.

Article about HPV and the vaccine

HPV not the cause of cervical cancer

FDA has a long history of lying to parents and women about food and health safety. Read this article and decide for your self.
I disagree with her ideas of teaching abstinence in school..i think the more information a woman has about sexuality and safe sex, the better choices SHE makes for herself. Demystifying sex from a "marriage only" act to a "safe, responsible, enjoyable ADULT" act gives the power BACK to the woman.
