Children of women
Today I received an interesting comment. Was a first for me. This person, who I have known (not well obviously) for about a month, told me they always thought that I had kids. Apparently I was conveying this air of tolerance and wisdom that they usually see in women who have kids, the ones who have been through it, the ones who “know”.
Now on the one hand it may just be a good thing, some wise old part of my personality that was escaping. On the other hand is it that I have just been through that much shit in my life already that it comes across to strangers? Something for me to think about I guess.
Of course, the conclusion of the discussion came when he said “Well, you definitely should have kids.” Not that he was offering to provide them for me, but it seems the impression is that I am suited for it. Hmmm.
Right now I am feeling kindaamused and
confused and
lonely and
tired (yawn)...
