As I try to sleep, my husband rubs all over me. I think a lot of women my age would feel resentment. But as he rubs my back and “other parts of my body” I realize I’m getting a full-body massage for free and think deep thoughts.
As a child, I belonged to my parents. As a productive reproducer of mankind, my body belonged to my children. As a married woman, my body has belonged to my husband. And sooner than later, my body will belong to God.
I feel like Shel Silverstein’s book The Giving Tree, although I would be the The Giving Body. Maybe that should be the title of the book I will never write. lol
Wee (that is not a typo) Women are the source of life. We are more powerful than we often remember. We are needed for humanity. Our sense of purpose is profound.
