Super Sized



January 17, 2014

My Super Power is having flaws. In my process, that I call life, I stumble, create, vacillate, laugh at my “control”(sometimes,)sugar-coat things, project, discuss, focus on freedom, am pragmatic and impulsive and exposed. When willing to display my flaws, people around me are more than likely agreeable to share theirs. They find the opening to talk about what bothers them, and often resolve the issues, or come up with one solution as they speak about it. Of course, these are the women in my life, the men simply clam up and grab the remote.

“Half The Sky”film is charged, riveting and must be viewed with a full box of tissue handy. The theme; educating the world about cultures, and societies that victimize women all over the world. There is an underlying statement: When women progress, we all move towards freedom, equality, and dignity. We cannot be complete people alone. When we forget we are one, something profoundly human in us is gone. The movie is based on the book of the same title, written by a journalist couple who worked for the New York Times. Amazing.

I’ll leave you with this-everyone needs to find the thing that they want to be remembered for. What is your Super Power?
