Shock is the reaction of some Americans we have encountered who learn that real French people living in France eat hamburgers. They do eat them...

For my mother. My first fan. Thank you for making me a man.

Me when looking at my bookshelves:
If food is to be baked or broiled, be sure your oven is hot before the dish goes in. Otherwise souffles will not rise, piecrusts will collapse, and gratineed dishes will overcook before they brown. A pot saver is a self-hampering cook. Use all the pans, bowls, and equipment ou need, but soak them in water as soon as you are through with them. Clean up after yourself frequently to avoid confusion. Train yourself to use your hands and fingers; they are wonderful instruments. Train yourself also to handle hot foods; this will save time. Keep your knives sharp. Above all, have a good time. J.C., L.B., S.B.

The ways and means of living with the instinctive nature are many, and the answers change as you change and as the world changes, so it can't be said: "Do this and this in this particular order and all will be well." But, over my lifetime as I've met wolves, I have tried to puzzle out how they live, for the most part, in such harmony. So, for peaceable purposes, I would suggest you begin right now with anything on this list. For those who are struggling, it may help greatly to begin with number ten. GENERAL WOLF RULES FOR LIFE 1. Eat 2. Rest 3. Rove in between 4. Render loyalty 5. Love the children 6. Cavil in the moonlight 7. Tune your ears 8. Attend to the bones 9. Make love 10. Howl often

Let us keep in mind that the best cannot hide. Meditation, education, all the dream analysis, all the knowledge of God's green acre is of no value if one keeps it all to oneself or one's chosen few.
Women Who Run With the Wolves by Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes, p. 460
To live as closely as possible to the numinous wild a woman must do more head tossing, more brimming, have more sniffing intuition, more creative life, more get down-dirty, more solitude, more women's company, more natural life, more fire, more cooking of words and ideas. She must do more recognition of sorority, more seeding, more root stock, more kindness to men, more neighborhood revolution, more poetry, more painting of fables and facts of the wild feminine. More terrorist sewing circles, and more howling. Much more canto hondo, much more deep song. She must shake out her pelt, strut the old pathways, assert her instinctual knowledge. We can all assert our membership in the ancient scar clan, proudly bear the battle scars of our time, write out secrets on walls, refuse to be ashamed, lead the way through and out. Let us not overspend on anger. Instead let us be empowered by it. Most of all let us be cunning and use our feminine wits.

On paper, I/we have done so much this year. I have completed so much that I started years ago. I got licensed as a professional counselor, got married, learned Transcendental Meditation, bought our first couch, bought our first Christmas tree with all the things that go on/under it (so fun!), got Laisic.
I’m grateful that I have so much. I get to work with people and (sometimes) watch them grow, sift through their minds with them (in jeans), evaluating thoughts and self-talk with them. Teach them about distorted thoughts, help them learn to identify it. Teach self-compassion, and help people figure out how we can mold it into their chapter. I get to come to a space where I feel safe and loved, where I get to make new things in my little kitchen, where we can laugh and cuddle on our couch, where I can act a fool and make my husband laugh and lovingly roll his eyes at my intentionally awful dance moves, or I can get down in the living room with my real (actually on point) dance moves. A husband that cares about the details, and who was able to plan 60% of the wedding things (because this big-picture gal didn’t care which venue or which DJ or which photographer).
It’s incredible to see the blooms of the seeds I’ve been planting and watering for years. So many just happened to bloom this year at the same time. Did you have the opportunity to see any blooms this year?
The next seed I’m going to start planting for 2020: buying a house.
I want to start on the seed of getting a dog, but... I think the anxiety might kill our cat, so that one’ll probably have to wait.
When we come up out of the under-world after one of our undertakings there, we may appear unchanged outwardly, but inwardly we have reclaimed a vast and womanly wilderness. On the surface we are still friendly, but beneath the skin, we are most definitely no longer tame.

Hello again tumblr people. :)

lesbians who prefer to use he/him pronouns are valid - for example, God
There is something unspeakably powerful about this post it carries an energy
Really?! I always thought God preferred the she/her pronoun! I thought it was just the prevalent sexism going on at the time that resulted in the use of he/him in the Bible
Y'all gotta watch what you say to kids and in front of kids. I was working with some young black kids today and one of the girls asked me why I had my hair natural. I told her I’m just taking a break from weaves and braids and all that and she said oh girl no we too dark to have our nappy hair out like that. She was 9. She said she doesn’t leave her house without it flat ironed because people will think she’s broke and ugly. This is also the same girl that last summer told me that we needed to go inside out of the sun because boys don’t like girls with dark skin. Little kids don’t come up with this stuff themselves, they hear their parents or other people talk about things and internalize the self hate or will tell these hurtful untrue things to their darker peers.
I work at a library, plenty of kids say shit like this. Since I like art, I draw dark skin girls with them everyday. I draw natural hair. Dark brown eyes. Draw with them all the time. Sneak in messages about self love. I try to tell them frequently I love their natural hair no matter the length or even if it’s damaged, let them know they are beautiful it’s not fucking cute that people demand black girls, and these are children, to be literally perfect. That’s not okay. I show them pics of dark skinned girls etc. like it’s up to us to help them and we all can do so much even with very little. Their parents might be trash, but positive encounters with people combats the toxicity and it does help I’ve seen it myself
^a real one
I <3 that you’re encouraging young Black children. It sounds like they’re hearing some tough and unfair messages. There are no people who are trash though. People create trash when we cook or clean, maybe when we type up a document with spelling errors. We can create negative and positive messages, and we can make helpful and unhelpful choices. Nonetheless, there are no trash people. Fortunately, there are people who pick up trash though and who work with trash! We definitely need them though because we create a lot of trash on our planet!
my favorite scene in the whole tv history
the only sad thing about this scene being in picture form is that you can’t hear the way Garcia says “Quantico”. Kwan-tee-co.
the best 90 seconds of television ever filmed
This is seriously amazing.
Hello yes 911 I just witnessed a fucking murder
No woman can afford to let her creative life hang by a thread while she serves an antagonistic love relationship, parent, teacher, or friend.
Women Who Run with the Wolves by Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes, p. 229
there is always another episode awaiting us and then another. There are always more opportunities to get it right, to fashion our lives in the ways we deserve to have them. Don't waste your time hating a failure. Failure is a greater teacher than success. Listen, learn, go on.
