Snags and musings .....

"Realize how many gifts and potentials you have - in your self, in your family, in your society, in this world. Cultivate the eyes to see yourself as you are, not the way you've been told you are." Pandit Rajmani Tigunait

I am writing a short story/memoir with the theme of reclaiming, healing mother-daughter relationships. Okay, my own, however in talking with and observing other women and their mother - daughter relationships, I do believe we all share a common thread of desire, hope and faith. For me,it is the desire to know my feminine lineage, to give honour to the incredibly elusive relationship that ties and bonds us all so deeply.. It is the hope that I hear and listen to who our mothers and grandmothers really are or were and it is the faith to know I must do this: heal a severed bond that I and my world so feverishly sliced away. 

Today I am spending time, once again, writing my story and I am in a snag, so therefore I will become the muse! This blog simply lets me wander,like my morning journaling practice however this is different. Somehow this electronic, cyberspace machine is moving me forward. Okay time to go back to my writing. Stop procrastinating Stephanie and get going .... so restless, so distracted! (Is this my voice, or my mother's ......?)

Muse-fully yours,

Stephanie
