“It’s sad but true that if you focus your attention on housework and meal preparation and diapers, raising children does start to look like drudgery pretty quickly. On the other hand, if you see yourself as nothing less than your child’s nurturer, role model, teacher, spiritual guide, and mentor, your days take on a very different cast.”
—Joyce Maynard (20th century)
““Child,
why do you waste your time
on childish things alone?”
“Clothe yourself in anger.”
“Take courage,
and cast off this honesty
toward your lover.”

gave her such advice,
she answered,
her face frightened,
“Speak softly.
The lord of my breath
is still in my heart.
No doubt he’ll hear you.””
