Many, many years ago someone handed me a copy of Gloria
Steinem’s Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions. It was a great read
then and I have the desire to find it and re-read it again. The message from
that book that I still carry with me today is that we need to rebel a little
bit every day. Challenge the status quo. Question authority. Laugh at
adversity. Live up to Steinem’s quote:
“We are the women our parents warned us against, and we are
proud.”
Acts of rebellion don’t have to be acts of anger. They can
be acts of playfulness, laughter (in a world where there are a lot of things
not so funny), the joy of being physically active, dancing, playing music,
goofing off. I love to see women laugh and play and just have fun. So I decided
to post up some pictures of that. As some of you will notice, my beautiful
daughter is prominently featured. I can’t help myself. I love her physical
manifestation of joy. She is my own personal reminder of the importance of
play.
