"One hundred years from now, as people look back on
our use of this continent, we shall not be praised for our
reckless use of its oil, nor the loss of our forests;
we shall be heartily damned for all these things.
But we may take comfort in the knowledge that we
shall certainly be thanked for the national parks."

~Secretary of the Interior Ray Lyman Wilbur, 1931

QuickPost - May 9, 2012

What a crazy coincidence that I check my blog and it has been exactly 1 year. 365 days. 1 solar cycle. (Approximately) 12 lunar cycles.

Tomorrow is C's birthday, and weather I think about it as one year from her last birthday, or 1 year ago, so much has happened in this 1 year. I think I could come up with a major life challenge or accomplishment for every month!

My frank and honest written note to myself from Monday sums up the year nicely:
"I am so torn by the life of the businesswoman--successful, productive, powerful, savvy, making women proud, proving, improving. But it is boring in an office. The catch-22 of the powersuit. Why is it 'better' to have the powersuit reputation?"
