But the following quote from poet Muriel Rukeyser (who up until now I had never heard of) has come to me, and it pretty much says it all: "What would happen if one woman told the truth about her life? The world would split open."
It may not rhyme, but it is poetry to me. Maybe it explains why so many of us try to keep our journeys at arm's length. Thank you for your inspiration, Muriel.
