Today is Mother's Day, and before you even ask...yes, I called my mother. I think maybe, aside from November-December, Mother's Day is the next hardest day/time for me as a single woman. I could bemoan the fact that I am helpmate to no one, and childless, but...why bother.
I've had a lot of good conversations this week. I think all good conversation starts with either a good cup of coffee or a good plate of food...I should take that hypothesis and turn it into a research project. Anywho, I've got questions I'd like to pose to you out there that are reading this.
When does a boy become a man?
How does Biblical womanhood play out in the life of a single woman? It seems many of the ideas of Biblical womanhood are tied to being a wife/mother and being under the authority of God and your husband (or your father). I can't help but feel like half a woman at times (especially on days like today). I have more thoughts on this particular topic, that will be covered in future posts, but for right now, I just want to know what other people have to say about the matter.
