Eye of the Storm
Posted on: Sunday, April 5th, 2009 by Marianne Clyde
The world seems to be turning upside down these days! Changes are happening every time you turn around. People are losing money; people are losing jobs; people are losing homes. These are indeed scary times. Most people I talk to, though, aren't really afraid, but they definitley are feeling in limbo. Several people in the last week have expressed the need to change their paradigm. We need to change the way we see the world and how to BE in the world. People are feeling an urgency to live their lives to the fullest; to use their gifts and talents for the benefit of others; to find the most profound way that they can to show love and change the world through BEING who we are. Certainly the big businesses and the big institutions that we have learned to trust are crumbling and we need to learn to learn to trust ourselves...and to trust our creator. His spirit of life and creativity and love live in us. It seems that if we are not expressing that love through actions that we are not doing our part to sustain what is good in the world. If we just stand by and let our business leaders and government leaders react in fear and make quick decisions based on public opinion (which changes every minute) we are relinguishing our power and responsibilitythat we have been given. To whom much is given, much is required. We can no longer sit around and let others make decisions and just float along. We need to use our gifts and talents and strengths to make the world a better place. What step can you take today to correct a wrong, to love someone unloved, to change the course of your life to a more productive and powerful one?

Either You Are, Or You Aren't a Renaissance Woman!
A renaissance woman is someone who sets her own agenda for personal achievement and will not allow herself to be manipulated or intimidated by self-proclaimed spokesmen who try and wrap their political philosophies around terms like "equality," "choice," "peace," "tolerance" and "diversity." She understands that she has been created for such a time as this and embraces her destiny as a challenge and not a curse, no matter what her personal circumstances. She is a winner not a whiner, a leader not a follower, a victor, not a victim. She wants to change the paradigm of the feminist movement that has served to marginalize and ridicule women who do not follow their collective agenda.
Millions of women around the country, from all professions, backgrounds and cultures, are courageously picking up the mantel of leadership and virtue, that the feminist movement has squandered. They are providing thoughtful and accurate analysis, on a variety of issues, of where, and who we are as a nation.
Remember, this is not a club. It is a mindset!
