I'm pretty good at remaining calm during an emergency. My house burned down when I was 12, which made me really pragmatic about what needed to be done. But I can be bad in that I compartmentalize a lot of emotions and push them away to deal with them at a later date.
I gave my beauty and my youth to men. I am going to give my wisdom and experience to animals.
My hope is that we continue to nurture the places that we love, but that we also look outside our immediate worlds.
