I had a slight identity crisis when I started my own blog. You put yourself out there and you wonder if you are interesting enough. I find I am tiring of the artifice on all the so called 'interesting' folks. I just want to hear from other human beings. That's why I blog, to find other human beings. So just be who you are - mess and all, and you'll be stunning. On the congo, I cannot watch things about real horrors like that, particularly after I had my daughter, it upsets me so deeply and leaves me feeling completely helpless. Particularly brutality to women and girls. I spend a lot of time at the Buddhist temple in prayers of compassion and I spend even more time ensuring that brutality (which all stems from the same place) doesn't overtake my own life in the way that I treat other beings around me. I also donate to an organization called Love 146 which does incredible things for victims of child prostitution. I think changing our own hearts is sometimes the best we can do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952363213237852117.post-31729852739964115862008-05-06T20:46:00.000-05:002008-05-06T20:46:00.000-05:00You are such a sweet soul Cath, that is why I love...You are such a sweet soul Cath, that is why I love you.
