Where I Stand Where I Stand Growing up in a spiritual family I have always known that there was a God. A stronger power that had everything I needed. A God that was born of a virgin‚ suffered‚ died and rose on the third day after his death. This God was who we prayed to‚ trusted and told our deepest secrets to‚ knowing no one would find out about them. I was taught to pray and ask and whatever I asked for would be given to me according to his riches and

I believe that I have a fairly good sense of direction – I can generally find my way around after going somewhere a few times‚ though I did somewhat embarrassingly get lost on my second day at Farragut High School. I like to think of myself as a creative

wall‚ through which he can plainly hear a group of people singing Christian hymns. Pulling himself up on some old pipes near the ceiling‚ he can see through a crevice that black people in white robes are holding a church service. It seems to him that what they are doing is wrong‚ that asking for forgiveness is obscene. The man moves on‚ feeling his way through the water.

A New England Sibyl Vs. Miss Grief Oppression has never been a word I have thought of when I thinking of the treatment of women.

They were women who were expected to be just pretty but silent‚ and they have been paving the way for women in the future
