Mothers

I have been blessed with so many amazing women in my life, and I want to take a moment to acknowledge all of them and their influence and love as my "mothers". An excerpt from "Women Who Run with Wolves":


"Even if you had the most wonderful mother in the world, you may eventually have more than one. You are born to one mother, but if you are lucky, you will have more than one. And among them all you will find most of what you need. Your relationships with "todas las madres", the many mothers, will most likely be ongoing ones, for the need for guidance and advisory is never outgrown, nor, from the point of view of womens deep creative life, should it ever be. Relationships between women, whether the women share the same bloodlines or are psychic soulmates, whether the relationship is between analyst and analysand, between teacher and apprentice, or between kindred spirits, are kinship relationships of the most important kind."
