Until I saw this...
I sobbed. Tears of release and joy, not sadness. To me, the precious gift Mia Michaels gave the world was a celebration of Women, of Life, of Peace... faeries, cherry blossoms, nymphs. The soft power that comes from the Sisterhood.
And when it was over, I was at Peace.
I've been talking of Peace now for a while, and I still am...
I'm reminded of the grace and comfort that women bring in times of war and strife, sorrow and struggle.
The skillful hands of the wartime nurse...
The care worker that comforts an AIDS orphan...
The Breast Cancer survivor walking for a cure...
A grandmother's hands as it sows a memory quilt...
A UNICEF worker helping mothers feed their children...

Ron, I stared at that picture for a long time and it made me feel better about the world.
You know, one of my all time favourite movies is Steel Magnolias. Precisely because of that soft power.
*hugs*
