welcome

The blog you're reading is a woman's blog.

A curious and intelligent woman.

A passionate yet thoughtful woman, a woman fragile and whimsical at times.

A woman who gets by on her own, but then doesn't. Because what unites us makes us strong.

What you are reading is the beginning of an adventure. I don't know where it will bring me nor do I know what it will spawn inside and around me. But I trust my instinct and I know it will be alright.

Because, like all women, when there is a decision to be made, I follow my heart.

So here I am, having survived a revolutionary year.

Who knows how many of you have thought at least once:

I'll get myself a new life.

A new job.

A new home.

I'll change my social status and move in with my significant other. I'll move to another country.

Bank. Physician. Hair dye.

Well... I thought it would be good to do it all in one shot - hair dye aside.

To rediscover the passion, the pleasure and the knowledge of living each single moment to the fullest.

And now here I am,

telling you the stories of those women with a feeling that by rescuing and safeguarding themselves, they can also protect what's around them.

Because by living our nature to the fullest, deriving from the innate sense of harmony and balance,

we blossom.

Taste, the aestethic drive.

The art of patience, the gift of tolerance and understanding.

These qualities are our essence, our value. Our Kind Strenght, to quote French president Mitterand's famous campaign.

And in this blog you will find these qualities,

among women that did not make compromises,

who did not accept the labeling, the impositions from their family or even just the pressures of (post)modern society.

Artists, stylists, journalists, presidents, trade executives, mothers and wifes who, with their creativity and foresight, tore down mental boundaries and went beyond the transparent but cumbersome limits set by models we can't go after anymore.

Thanks to them we will discover new lifestyles, new crafts, and family units that are original but true.

Women of the third millenium, welcome.
