What is your earliest known or imagined memory?

I am so lucky because I had someone around, my mother, answer what was maybe my first question: "Who is Uncle Joe?"

But I did not ask for years.

Uncle Joe was not an uncle, he was a neighborhood friend, my mother explained. "And how do you remember him?" She asked.

I told her that he had given me a bunch of crayons in a cardboard box, that I still recall.

She told me this happened when I was less than a year old.

I was in the front yard, verified by geography and where I was living at the time, not more than 1 year after I was born.

We had moved from Ohio to Illinois. The move must have made an impression on me.

I do not recall ever seeing "Uncle Joe" again.

I was like 25 years old when I had asked about him. My mother was stunned.

I attribute that memory to my love of coloring in art. And I attribute my love of coloring to the memory — and others that would follow, of course.

It is a wonderful feeling to still have this tiny memory. I have bad memories too, which I prefer to ignore as much as possible.

I am about to welcome you, so far I will be there. I am about to welcome you, so far I found a friend in you. I am about to welcome you, so far I am fascinated by you. I am about to welcome you, so far I see my twin which was long lost during my infanthood. I am about to welcome you, so far I see trust in you which does not promise to whisper, then whisper. I am about to welcome you, so far…

the Old Foe resurfaceS… by david jarvis 2022.

I recall some old novel i red long ago. Parents and infant : Photo by William Fortunato on Pexels.com Two parents loved each other very much and conceived a child who was born and was still in infant hood when one parent got word an ancient and deadly family enemy had resurfaced. So the parental relationship became strained, and people saw their stress and attributed that to young parenthood.…

Convincing myself that I can become a better person. Once again. For the upcoming year. Sigh.. Every year I make the same resolution – try to become a better person. Sleep more. Sleep better. Yell less. Meditate. Ground my soul. Exercise. Eat healthier. Become a better parent. Become someone I want to be proud of looking back on the year when the year’s end comes around. Year 2017…

die-hard fans of popular Showtime drama The L Word are waiting patiently for season 4 in the first series to air on January 7. The L Word follows a group of lesbians in Los Angeles and their friends and lovers in their search for love while trying to develop a successful career at the same time. I was a big fan of The L Word since I rented the entire first season after it was released on DVD. And I am a heterosexual woman. Here are my top 3 reasons why all women should be watching The L Word, regardless of sex or age (provided you are aged over 17). 1. Fans of The L Word mourned the beloved character last season when Dana died of breast cancer at the age of 32 years. After the episode in which she passed, The L Word has circulated a short memory character Dana, interviews with cast and crew of The L Word, and yielded important information about breast cancer. Fact of the matter is, if older women are at increased risk of breast cancer, the disease can strike anyone regardless of health or age. Dana was an athlete character on The L Word, a professional tennis player who has eaten well and exercised regularly, which did not save her from breast cancer or to die. I'm sure all women have heard this before, but the best chance of defeating breast cancer include early detection. Conduct regular breast self-examination from your 20 and begin having clinical breast exams by a professional every three years. Women's age 40 and older should undergo annual mammography to help detect breast cancer at an early stage. The L Word is not only a show about lesbians, he draws attention to women issues.2 serious. The L Word explores other kinds of sexuality beyond homosexuality. The main character is Alice, who describes himself as bisexual, and newcomer Max / Moira is a cheerful woman beginning of the transition to becoming a man. Even Tina, half of the leader, certainly far from being couple Bette and Tina, was a heterosexual before the meeting of Bette and is currently dating a man on the show. If you are fairly ignorant of the differences in sexuality in women, The L Word can help you navigate through the confusion. This is especially useful if you happen to have a homosexual, bisexual or transgender friend that you can not seem to relate to more. The L Word draws attention to the fact that whatever your sexual orientation, all women going through the same pain, loss, grief and happiness.3. Sexuality aside, The L Word takes a look at some of the problems all women may have faced at one time or another, including the fight for respect in the workplace, the adultery, self-confidence and commitment. These issues transcend sexuality and gender. Fans of The L Word Bette looked to face the problems of control that his relationship with Tina and she unravels the struggles for professional success. We saw many Alice with grief after losing their break Dana, and we still sympathized with her, even if some of the things she has probably prosecuted. And fans of The L Word saw Shane take the leap into a committed relationship with Carmen, than leaving the altar at the end of Season 3. All women are struggling with similar problems in the quest for identity. Just because the L Word girls happen to be lesbians does not mean that all women can not relate to what happens in their worlds.Because Offers L Word with such important issues for all women, regardless of sexuality is essential to watch a show. The L Word has always broken the tradition and explored very controversial subjects, which makes the spectacle even more important to look at a time when gay marriage is one of the most important civil rights of our time . Tune in on January 7 to see the season 4 premiere of The L Word and why the show should be watched by all women.
