So lets engage, lets not dismiss, lets listen to women around us, Be inspired.

 “I have come to regard with some suspicion those who claim that the Bible never troubles them. I can only assume this means they haven’t actually read it.”

― Rachel Held Evans.
So today its about books and recent authors who inspire myself, further pretty sure many others too. Several Ladies whose books enjoyed found very valuable reading.

Diane butler Bass
Katie Piper
Rachel Evens...from above quote.

Yeah recently these last few years their books found very useful. Along with taking some time to listen to music from females, Lana Del Rey, ? Her music is noted for its cinematic quality and exploration of tragic romance, glamour, and melancholia, with frequent references to pop culture and 1950s–1970s Americana. Her vintage Hollywood glamour aesthetic is showcased in her music videos. Beyoncé, not just a dance or disco diva but complicated artist whose proud of her looks also pretty emotionally skillful. Taylor swift. She got faith, looks, business acumen, huge following. 

Always asking why, what do the lyrics contain, whose agreeing, what values are they endorsing. Its also simply fun. Engaging, leaves myself better informed when in encounters where we talk deeper.

Not to discover nor reject feminist teachings or issues. Just to attempt to understand another's perspective. This style or method if its that `haughty`, is an effort by,` Northern working class white male`.

If its not good enough. Sorry. 

"We don’t want to choose between science and religion or between our intellectual integrity and our faith. Instead, we long for our churches to be safe places to doubt, to ask questions, and to tell the truth. "

Strangely there sense of community, gathering with others who experience

 LIFE in this way, connect. So the piggish boyfriends attitude means. Here something she repeats to those attending her gatherings. “You took the time to memorize me, my fears, my hopes and dreams. I just like hanging out with you all the time.” — “Stay Stay Stay”

What inspiring is, that Women in the creative , sense of LIFE ,faith, God and Love ,inspire us all. Inform us all, encourage us all, Women gather differently further much deeper then men. Share plus gather differently. That's inspiring. Also way we Men can be...


"Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful?/Will you still love me when I got nothing but my aching soul?/I know you will, I know you will" — "Young and Beautiful"


So when we engage , when we don't dismiss, when we listen to others especially the women around us, the Women others are engaging with The people attending gatherings we wouldn't bother to show up alongside. we get to learn so many beautiful, different inspiring words, feeling, moments, Perhaps for a odd few may inspire both connected in that personal gathering opportunity to grow deeper plus more in love.

“Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work, or watch, or weep this night, and give your angels charge over those who sleep. Tend the sick, Lord Christ; give rest to the weary, bless the dying, soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted, shield the joyous; and all for your love’s sake. Amen.”

. . . she got a postcard in the mail
That just said Heaven,with a picture of the ocean and the beach
The simple words he wrote her
Said he loved her
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near,Wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year and there's some folks we know
They say, "Hello, "
I miss you so, wish you were here"
