thoughts on birth, motherhood, and life
"Goals are dreams with deadlines"
-Diana Scharf Hunt
Our worst fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God; your playing small doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God within us. It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone, and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people premission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.- Marianne Williamson

I remember the interview with her in The Motherhood. I am so sorry to hear that too. May all the brings you and her family comfort be yours and theirs in abundance.

I'm really sorry for your loss, Kim. She sounds like a wonderfully interesting and enriching person to have known.

A powerful, and sad women with a great loss no mother should have to experience, may she now be at peace.
I am very saddened to hear about Christine's death.
I wonder if I would have had the same courage as she did — to question the HIV/AIDS paradigm, and in essence, defy the Western medical establishment.
I know she believed in her cause and her fight, and that she was a mother who loved her children as dearly as any of us do.
I know she wanted the best for her family — the "best" being defined according to her and her husband's beliefs. Even if they were in opposition to the majority.
I pray she now has all the answers that alluded her in life, and a peaceful reunion with her baby daughter.
