I am doing fine and just losing myself in trying to get organized and clear many things in the house before the move. I will probably get back to blogging after a few months when I am more settled in Tanzania, our new country for a few years. <br />Will visit soon! <br />Much love to you<br />L<br />Taboulehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01207053179340767332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2914408138577047847.post-26171624963897610792013-03-25T01:08:39.633+08:002013-03-25T01:08:39.633+08:00Hi Lana, I hope that you and your family are all w...Hi Lana, I hope that you and your family are all well and happy. <br />You don't have to respond to this comment; I just want to say hi and send you some good wishes.Ofeliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16156940705261726354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2914408138577047847.post-74867251805408094202013-02-15T09:38:32.571+08:002013-02-15T09:38:32.571+08:00Incredible timing.

Though not directly related to the treatment of women, I am dealing with the problems of the aggressive behavior of conservative gun toting men, struggling with how to respond to them from a place of kindness and understanding, when they see such behavior as signs of weakness, thus inviting more aggressiveness.

I also do not understand how men can be cruel to the gender that bore them... it takes so much strength to stand up to such backwards mentality.Taboulehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01207053179340767332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2914408138577047847.post-36166888910117501642013-02-07T01:25:27.354+08:002013-02-07T01:25:27.354+08:00What an amazing post!
