Jewel- I admire you for your independence and strength. I wish you peace, safety and equality. The last you may not see until your daughter’s or granddaughter’s time but you will see it eventually. It is archaic, fearful, weak egos and minds that choose to dominate and control. I dream of a day when the great minds of women unoppressed make a full contribution to humanity and the rewards we will all enjoy. In the future, the ideals of the benevolent, peaceful, just religion we keep hearing so much about in the US and Europe, but seeing almost none of, will be realized. Sadly, it isn’t today.
