As We Grow Older We Should Become

When I Say Work I Only Mean Writing. Everything Else Is Just Odd Jobs.

What Goes On Inside Isn't Ever The Same As What Goes On Outside.

The Dead Don't Bear A Grudge Nor Seek A Blessing. The Dead Don't Rest Uneasy. Only The Living.

Women, As Well As Men, In All Ages And In All Places, Have Danced On The Earth, Danced The Life Dance, Danced Joy, Danced Grief, Danced Despair, And Danced Hope. Literally And Metaphorically, By Their Very Lives.

It Is My Feeling That As We Grow Older We Should Become Not Less Radical But More So. I Do Not, Of Course, Mean This In Any Political-party Sense, But Rather In A Willingness To Struggle For Those Things In Which We Passionately Believe. Social Activism And The Struggle For Social Justice Are Often Thought Of As The Natural Activities Of The Young But Not Of The Middle-aged Or The Elderly. In Fact, I Don't Think This Was Ever True.
