[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 672623, member: 17461"] I love this site, love it that we are supportive of one another in every way. I have seen Ernestine on television. She moves with grace and strength. She began lifting weights when she was already elderly because there was no reason not to begin. *** I have been thinking about this imagery Leafy posted for us. About how we tend not to see bravery or courage. About how much intent matters. The chicken broaches no questions. She does not allow fear. This is where we are with our children, too. Surely the hen suffers over the chicks that are endangering them all, just as we suffer over our children. I just keep thinking about this. The hen does not care that she is only a chicken. She is a Mother. And that changes everything. Cedar [/QUOTE]
