117. Same / Different Person
I was thinking the other day about how through my life I have changed and shifted, how I started and how I am today, and wondering how many other shifts I will make before I die.
I think that some of the shifts are subtle and then they pile up and I realize that I’ve changed quite a lot. And it’s interesting that some of the old stays right along with the new.
I feel that when the women’s movement came along, I was so ready for that and made some major changes. And then later, I softened some of my strident talk and became gentler.
Here’s the shadorma I wrote about it all:
A Shadorma of Change
start out: girl
shy goody-two-shoes
shift begins
girl ends up:
strong, think-for-self, creative
justice-loving broad
