This is me, except the divorce was amicable. But then I had to deal with my emotionally immature ex husband for the next 18 years because we share a child. So there is wisdom in that.

I only have the “lived in different countries”, but I’m always advising to share my limited knowledge.

Especially crone to maiden wisdom.

(I'm the crone.)

Crone, come and keep no longer —
Wait not thy answer woeful or bright,
I plead to know new the truth,
What have you got grand in stock,
To tell in doom and day for me?

Hush, little ember. I heard the rattle of your ribs before you spoke. You bid me keep no longer—so I cast my spindle down. You bid me wait not—so I let the grave-clock tick untouched. You ask what grand stock I hold for you, beneath this roof of bone and briar. Very well. Here is my inventory, not in gold, but in truths:

  • Buy low. Sell high.
  • His character is revealed in how he treats the serving class.
  • Inside of you are two wolves. Nobody, including they, knows how they got there. They wish to leave. Do not hold them back.
  • Never haggle with a hag for she has nothing to lose and all to gain.

Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.
