THE WILD WOMAN
A wild woman is herself. She does what is natural to her without inhibitions, which means she can do and be anything. A wild woman is spontaneous, bold, sexually alive and takes risks, leaps before she thinks and is willing ...

Their first touch
was at fourteen
when the moon was high
and her hair was soft
and her skin was warm

We each have a unique wild woman within. Her needs vary, yet she will always carry your spontaneous, uninhibited, intuitive feelings.
The reason for releasing your wild woman is to enjoy freedom, not to increase repression. Repression is a feeli...

We tried so hard to make things better for our kids that we made them worse.
For my Grandchildren, I'd like better. I'd really like for them to know about hand-me-down clothes and homemade ice cream and leftover meatloaf sandwiches. Brown sack lu...
