Something that gothtique wrote about today reminded me of a thought process I had a couple of days ago. I was biking past the State House on my way to volunteer with teen girls. Many of the girls at this organization are very outgoing, outspoken, powerful, and I can imagine them getting all het up about something and storming the castle. Then I started thinking about women who get going, get involved, get ambitious, get rabble rowsed...and I wondered why I've never envisioned myself in a position like that. It's just never crossed my mind. Now that I try to imagine it, I'm puzzled, as if I'm imagining red grass or green sheep. This is just one of many short attempts at figuring out what kind of person I want to be and what career I want to pursue. Not, I think, a rabble rowser or a stormer of the statehouse.
