One Last Note To Self
I was once thinking about going to India to walk with a backpack and no goal. (I was also thinking about becoming religious. I was clearly losing my mind.)
It's cheap to go to India. I would do yoga and look at poor people and elephants all day long. Eat spicy food. Could it get any better? See some rainbows and dolphins and hippies dancing in the moonlight. Let my hair grow.
It made me wonder about the word family man. Why is there a word for family man? What about a family woman? Is that a pleonasm? Is it in the word 'woman' that she's a 'family person'? Whereas a man can be any kind of man, and then if he's into the family thing, he's that kind of a man. What kind of a woman walks around in India with no goal?
Note to self: Be any kind of woman you want.
