My Goddess is Calling?

from Circle of Stones by Judith  Duerk

I am discovering a calling. I am discovering myself. It is only through the darkness that one discovers the light.

What would our lives look like today if a place like this existed where we were able to go to be with our women?  A place where it was ok to be in the darkness as well as the light.  A place for all women in all walks of life.  A place to go with your daughters and your grandmothers.  A place to discover our selves, our femininity, a place where you felt united with women, a place where you felt the embrace of understanding, a place that felt primal since the beginning of time, a place to discover the sacredness of being a woman and a place where there was no judgment.

Is this my ministry?  The thought of it does bring tears.  Talking about it brings tears.

I would have liked a place like this when I had my first period.
I would have liked a place like this when I lost my virginity.
I would have liked a place like this when I had my children.
I would have liked a place like this when I had marriage problems.
I would have liked a place like this when I had depression.
I would have liked a place like this when I started to see my light from within.

I would like a place like this when I start to show my daughters to embrace their own light.

I would like a place like this when I start to show my daughters to not be afraid of their own darkness.

I would like a place like this when I start menopause.
I would like a place like this for my daughters and their daughters.
I would like a place like this when I become old so I could sit next to the woman who was in her darkness.

What would this mean to any of you?

 How would your life be different?
