Day and Knights

It's sad to see families breaking up to seek promises of a good and better life - I believe it's the same pattern of poverty

For judith it was a promise of security of a comfortable life and loyalty from a knight in shining armour

For alma it was a promise of security of love and attention of a knight in shining armour

I think this is the poverty of women in our society - the absence of security in our relationships - that's why we keep seeking for that perfect knight - but we all know it will never be perfect - so maybe it will have to be a decision to see that we are a sum of all our relationships - that maybe a subtraction of one can be an addition of another - and maybe at some point we will have to say it is enough - and maybe it will feel enough.

p.s. weird that both women are my exact same age
