Preface to The Women Inside Me

Often we try to hide some parts of ourselves; we try to pretend that we never have dark, ugly thoughts, that we never wish ill of anyone, that we never think selfishly, that we never lust in the flesh (as some of our Biblically grounded folks might say), that we never dream or fantasize. All the while we show compassion and selfless caring for others, as well as display signs of childish whimsy and frivolity.  We pretend that we are something other than the frail and sometimes failing women and men we really are.  We refuse to acknowledge that packed into our one temple are attitudes and mindsets of black, white, and a plethora of shades of gray. 

In future blogs those titles ending with (TWIM) are part of this series.
