I started with the Artist’s List, moved on to the Feel Better List, then got waylaid just after the Budding Feminist List. Now I’m back to offer you the last two installments: Religious Awakening and Survival Parenting (next Wednesday). Thanks for hanging in there with me…and remember, any purchases made by clicking on the embeded links help support this website.

I had only read and loved "The Secret Life of Bees" until I read this post. I'll be interested in reading her autogiography and have it at the top of my To Be Read list. I am engrossed in the book "The Power of Yin: Celebrating Female Consciousness" written by three influential <a href="http://www.thepowerofyin.com/about_the_authors.html" rel="nofollow">feminist philosophers</a> of the 1970's, Hazel Henderson, Jean Houston & Barbara Marx Hubbard. It is a record of discussion they had over a period of time in the 70's, but their conversations are very relevant to today's world, 30 years later! I love reading how these accomplished women have shown intellectual, spiritual and cultural leadership, something most of our male leaders are sorely missing. Thanks again for the info. Cheers, Linda Hi Rachelle,
