How to recognize an eating disorder

Posted on: Tuesday, February 8th, 2011 by Marianne Clyde

Rachel was a model teenager. Middle child of a large family, she always cooked the big Sunday dinner, the family event of the week. They all loved the sherry gravy. They all loved Rachel.

She worked at the rectory, cooking for the priests, helped her dad assemble widgets for his work, oversaw the grocery list so that there was always plenty of her friend’s favorite snacks when they came over. She was so efficient in the kitchen that she even oversaw her parents’ parties, where the whiskey sours were flowing freely. Everybody kind of left her alone to do her thing because she was so good at it.

Nobody noticed that Rachel never ate what she cooked. She was always catering to others: the priests, the family, her friends, her parent’s guests.

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!
