A Special Passage for Monica

From The Call - Sometimes it comes as a soft-bellied whisper. Sometimes it holds an edge of urgency, but it always says, \\u201cWake up my love. You are walking asleep, there\\u2019s no safety in that.\\u201d

Now Where Did I Put That?

Aging can be fun if we think about it as a never-ending game of hide-and-seek. The physical aspects of getting older are easier for us to deal with than the mental and emotional changes taking place within our bodies. We may understand that a tire with a nail in it isn\\u2019t fit to be on the road, but if the same tire simply doesn\\u2019t feel like going out for a Sunday drive because it may or may not feel flat, we have a hard time accepting that.

And, it\\u2019s not just us. There is a lot of judgement going on between people who view another person being emotional as a weakness. Most of us can remember a time when we have commented negatively about a person who allows their mental state to overwhelm them and take over their life. We might later be sorry for having said it, but we already passed judgement.

Our Ever Changing Hormones

If having a five o\\u2019clock shadow isn\\u2019t enough, we get to read our prescription bottle for our female dryness medication with our \\u201creaders\\u201d (If you don\\u2019t know, it\\u2019s the cool new way to say bifocals). And older sisters \\u2013 if you are lucky enough to have one \\u2013 were given to us as gifts from God, as town criers to alert us on our next genetic mutation.

Realizing that science and chemistry are behind what we are feeling is a great tool for reconnecting with ourselves and for finding balance in our lives by way of proper nutrition. If we fail to pay attention to our bodies, like Monica did, we may find ourselves gasping for breath, thinking today might be our last day. We, women, have the propensity to suffer silently.

It\\u2019s Best to Switch to Vodka now

Monica shares her darkness, her light and her compassion in today\\u2019s call. We also ponder these questions... Does a glass of red wine trigger hot flashes during the night? Are meditations and exercise black magic for curing memory lapses?
