About Me


"We are very close to death. All women are. And we are very close to rape and we are very close to a beating. And we are inside a system of humiliation from which there is no escape for us." (Andrea Dworkin)
Courage, sacrifice, determination,commitment, toughness, heart, talent and guts. That's what little girls are made of-the hell with sugar and spice.
ITS ALL ABOUT ATTITUDE
Adam and Noah were ancestors of mine. I never thought much of them. Noah lacked character and Adam couldn’t be trusted with apples.
No Gods - No Masters (Margaret Sanger)
I am a bit of an eccentric old hippie who believes deeply in the love, forgiveness and universal power of the Spirit of God but not in the idiocy and totalitarianism of religion (it is usually when people are at their most religious that they behave with the least sense and the greatest cruelty ~ e.g. Islam is a genocidal totalitarian religion). Born in New Zealand (but have lived in Australia for 30yrs); support the All Blacks, mother of 4 children (one deceased) and grandmother of 6.
Proud and grateful sober member of Alcoholics Anonymous since Oct 2005. Disinclined to play by the rules. Born a feminist, raised by a feminist (my father is also a male-feminist), God willing...hope to die a feminist. Still love men (you don't have to hate men to be pro-women).
I have a consuming interest in the socio-cultural, neuro-biochemical, orthomolecular, psychological and genetic links to alcoholism/addiction and I strongly believe that "alcoholics and addicts are not BAD people needing to be GOOD - they are SICK people needing to be WELL"
Human rights activist (particularly the RIGHTS of Women and Children). Obsessed with reading. Perpetually curious. Live in an old house filled with Victorian/shabby chic/art deco stuff. Beautiful parents. Social worker (child protection) by profession and women's rights activist by choice. Supporter of the Salvation Army. Survivor of domestic verbal, mental and emotional abuse by ex-member of the military.
Dislike doing the dishes, waste, misogynists, Sir Roy Meadows, King Henry VIII, country and western music, bullies, doing the dishes, MAN-made religion and its sanctimonious fanatics; cats, adult temper-tantrums, abstract art, going to the hairdresser, racist jokes, poor spelling, doing the dishes, mediocrity, clichés, gardening, TV, doing the dishes and shopping.
I'm angry about chronic apathy, MAN-made wars, The Porn Industry, the 9/11 Farce, Child Abuse, Violence Against Women, the Catholic Church, Animal Cruelty, Big Pharma, False Allegations of Munchausen by Proxy, Patriarchy, GMO's, Fluoridation, Vaccinations, Ritalin/Anti-depressant-drugged children, and the Sugar-free/diet food & drinks (aspartame) industry.
Quite a strange sense of humour but LOTS of it! I study and use Homeopathy, Bach Flowers, New Zealand & Australian bush and flower essences; enjoy museums, forensic psychology, Victoriana, walking my dog, loving and being loved, 2nd-hand shops. I love Converse and Doc Martin shoes, cushions, stained glass, real fairies, flowers, chocolate, seahorses and antique rocking horses; anything with an ivy pattern or fringed and the colour pink or tie-dyed.
Got family
Got friends
Got a life
Got recovery
Got God
Got peace.
ALREADY A FEMINIST AT THE AGE OF 16!
Come sit down beside me I said to myself.
And although it doesn't make sense,
I held my own hand as a small sign of trust.
And together I sat on the wall.
Someday, in the event that humankind actually figures out what it is that this world revolves around, thousands of people are going to be shocked and perplexed to find out that it was not them.
Sometimes this includes me.
PATRIARCHY is the ultimate family values lie. It is not and never has been a justification nor basis for ANY male authority over women, let alone the self-serving overbearing male authority beloved of fundamentalist cowards. And absolutely no kind of spousal abuse pretended to be God's discipline is justified by scripture. If domestic violence happens at the hands of a family patriarch, that man must be accountable to secular authority. He also stands condemned before God; is a fool and needs serious repentance and re-education into what scripture is all about. He has no claim to justification before any Almighty in any context.
Likewise the patriarchal blind guides who taught him to be that way. Patriarchy is the false notion that God has mandated a patriarchal system of family governance based on Himself as the commanding head of a man's life and the man as head of his wife and children - not unlike a first sergeant who takes orders from the commanding officer.
This is kindergarten religion in one of its ugliest lights but seriously practiced and preached by shallow-water pulpit-pounders who mistakenly counsel families that God trusts the man to govern women and children - and that it's all Biblically ordained.
VACCINATIONS, FLUORIDE, ASPARTAME/DIET PRODUCTS and PSYCHOTROPIC DRUGS/RITALIN are maiming and killing our children - PLEASE HELP STOP THIS POLITICALLY-SANCTIONED CARNAGE
Pharmaceutical companies will soon rule the world if we keep letting them believe we are a happy, functional society so long as all the women are on Prozac, all children on Ritalin, and all men on Viagra.
“Everyday millions of children are lined up and injected with toxic putrid substances grown on animal organs, cancer cells, aborted fetuses and other toxic substances. Few people are questioning how those viruses were obtained and how they were grown in a laboratory. If one would ask these sensible questions, one would become very enlightened about vaccine production. I warn you now, discussing vaccine-production will turn your stomach. Vaccines are made from the most vilest and filthiest substances on the earth. Since the definition of abomination is "anything that is filthy", the term describes vaccinations adequately and truthfully. The vaccine "cauldron" is full of putrid junk from bodies exposed to disease and excreting morbid purulence. Science gathers this junk up in hopes of making vaccines for "preventing" disease; and we are being fooled while vaccinations cause increases in diseases.” (Dr. Joseph Mercola)
Aspartame is an "approved sweetener" because of a few greedy and dishonest people who place profits above human life and well-being. With the FDA and our Congress culpable, only an INFORMED and ACTIVE public will affects its reclassification from "food additive" to TOXIC DRUG, and removed from the human food chain.
"The psychiatric diagnosing and drugging of children should be viewed as a form of technological child abuse - yet one more version of the chemical straightjacket" (Dr. Peter Breggin)
Fluoridation is UNETHICAL because:
1) It violates the individual's right to informed consent to medication.
2) The municipality cannot control the dose of the patient.
3) The municipality cannot track each individual's response.
4) It ignores the fact that some people are more vulnerable to fluoride's toxic effects than others. Some people will suffer while others may benefit.
5) It violates the Nuremberg code for human experimentation.
WORLD'S SHORTEST FAIRY TALE Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl "Will you marry me?" The girl said,"NO!" And the girl lived happily ever after and went shopping, dancing, travelling, drank martinis, always had a clean house, never had to cook, had sex with whomever she pleased. Did whatever the hell she wanted, never argued, didn't get fat, had many boyfriends, didn't save money, and had all the hot water to herself. She went to the theatre, never watched football, never wore fricken lacy lingerie that went up her ass, had high self esteem, never cried or yelled, felt and looked fabulous in sweat pants, and burped, swore, and farted all the time. THE END
As she carried her child may she carry her soul. As her child was born, may she give birth and life and form to her own, higher truth. As she nourished and protected her child, may she nourish and protect her inner life and her independence. For her soul shall be her most painful birth, her most difficult child and the dearest sister to her other children.
AMEN
Somewhere in this night the earth is heard to whisper. The ground speaks upward through the soles in our feet and echoes the message of angels and prophets. The secret lingers by us waiting to be heard. Everything is in it's orbit, everyone lives in their cycle. Everything is justified and everyone is healed, eventually. I left home looking for my father like the rest of my generation. Like the rest of every generation. We expected him to provide the answer; we expected him to heal. Instead, we found our fathers no stronger than we, no more complete. Only fragile men, the sons of other fathers in the wreckage of other dreams. When we can, we father each other. Somewhere in this night is a God who understands. Somewhere........Our Mothers still wait and pray in the language of angels.
"I am the Divine Feminine, God as Mother, Universal Creatrix, of all that is and is not.
I come again that you might know the truth of who you are and what life is.
God is life, you are God.. All is God.
I am the One in the Many, I have manifested as the Divine Feminine forms of all cultures and religions.. Yet, I remain unto myself in eternal divinity.
I come with a simple message: It's time to awaken. It's time to rise to the level of the God that you are.. the God that is all and everything."
SALLY CLARK was a British lawyer and the victim of a gross miscarriage of justice; her convictions in 1999 for the murder of two of her sons were quashed in 2003.The possible causes of cot death include genetic and environmental influences. In the case of Sally Clark's children Christopher and Harry, vaccination seems to be suspiciously associated with their deaths as the only common factor was that both deaths followed shortly after vaccination.
"Harry was eight weeks old, the regulation age for the first of three injections against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (DTP) and Hib (a bacterial infection that can cause meningitis). He was also given an oral polio vaccine. His biological age was five weeks, as he had been born three weeks premature. Because of the previous sudden death of his brother, Christopher, his breathing was being monitored. He was uncharacteristically dozy from the time of his jabs to the time he died. Not many people know these facts, because at Sally's trial the defense did not mention immunization as a possible cause of death. Two prosecution witnesses, including the pediatrician Professor Sir Roy Meadow, assured the jury it could be discounted. Their statements went unchallenged, and the issue did not form any part of the appeal hearings. Clark's first son died suddenly within a few weeks of his birth in 1996. After her second son died in a similar manner, she was arrested in 1998 and tried for the murder of both sons.
Her prosecution was controversial due to statistical evidence presented by pediatrician Professor Sir Roy Meadow, who testified that the chance of two children from an affluent family suffering Sudden Infant Death Syndrome was 1 in 73 million, when in fact it was closer to 1 in 200. In an unusual intervention, the Royal Statistical Society wrote to the Lord Chancellor saying there was "no statistical basis" for Meadow's figure. Clark was convicted in November 1999. The convictions were upheld at appeal in October 2000, but after she had served more than three years of her sentence, they were quashed in a second appeal in January 2003, and she was released from jail.
Clark's experience has been called "one of the great miscarriages of justice in modern British legal history." Clark was found dead of alcohol poisoning in her home on 16/03/07.
She died of a broken heart.

My Interests



"A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another" (John 13:34)

To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you. ~Lewis B. Smedes

When we heal the earth, we heal ourselves. ~David Orr

A living planet is a much more complex metaphor for deity than just a bigger father with a bigger fist. If an omniscient, all-powerful Dad ignores your prayers, it's taken personally. Hear only silence long enough, and you start wondering about his power. His fairness. His very existence. But if a world mother doesn't reply, Her excuse is simple. She never claimed conceited omnipotence. She has countless others clinging to her apron strings, including myriad species unable to speak for themselves. To Her elder offspring She says - go raid the fridge. Go play outside. Go get a job. Or, better yet, lend me a hand. I have no time for idle whining. ~David Brin

If women want any rights more than they's got, why don't they just take them, and not be talking about it. (Sojourner Truth)

"My advice to the women of the world is to raise more hell and fewer dahlias" - W.A.White

“I propose that the core of sadism, common to all its manifestations, is the passion to have absolute control over a living being, whether an animal, a child, a man, or a woman” (Eric Fromme)

"It is no measure of emotional health to be well-adjusted to a profoundly sick society"

The capacity to give one's attention to a sufferer is a very rare and difficult thing; it is almost a miracle; it is a miracle.

"There are trying days when your last nerve is being played like a fiddle. There are discouraging times when the word 'hope' has lost all meaning. There are days when you stand between a rock and a hard place and the hard place feels better.
BUT YOUR SPIRIT WILL NOT BE BROKEN.
Remember those who came before you: the countless women who cried, who suffered, who struggled and who died......so that you would have a smoother path to walk on. They stood and you'll stand. Be proud and strong and know:

YOUR SPIRIT WILL NEVER BE BROKEN"

There is no pillow so soft as a clear conscience

People are afraid of what they might find if they analyse themselves too much. But you have to crawl into the wound to discover what your fears are. Once the bleeding starts, the cleansing begins.

LIFE IS DIFFICULT
This is a great truth, one of the greatest truths (The first of the 'Four Noble Truths' which Buddha taught was 'Life is suffering'). It is a great truth because once we truly see this truth, we transcend it. Once we truly know that life is difficult--once we truly understand and accept it--then life is no longer difficult. Because once it is accepted, the fact that life is difficult no longer matters.
M. Scott Peck (The Road Less Travelled)

“If to be feelingly alive to the sufferings of my fellow-creatures is to be a fanatic, I am one of the most incurable fanatics ever permitted to be at large.” (William Wilberforce)

"Jesus was a dissident on the fringes of the Empire of his day. He stood with everybody who was nobody. He made a beeline to stand with those on the margins, those whose dignity had been denied, the poor and excluded the easily despised, the demonized, and those whose burdens were more than they could bear. And they killed him for it."
— Fr. Gregory Boyle

There is little to no evidence that Jesus ever intended for us to worship him. Rather, he wanted us to be like him: to trust like him, to think like him, to love like him, to follow in his steps and do greater things than even he did. And to ensure that our natural feelings of devotion would manifest in healthy ways, he said, "Whatever you do to the least of these (the poor, the outcast, the needy, the hungry, etc), you do unto me."

That little man in black says woman can't have as much rights as man because Christ wasn't a woman. Where did your Christ come from?...From God and a woman. Man has nothing to do with him.” (Sojourner Truth)

"Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm — but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves."" — T. S. Eliot (1888-1965)

You don't have to be anti-man to be pro-woman

I have come to the conclusion, from observation and experience, that marriage is like long fart. An unpleasant experience that we must walk through and the only good thing about it is that we learn how long we can really hold our breath.

and my personal heroes: the New Zealand suffragette KATE SHEPPARD (Among self-governing countries still extant today, New Zealand was the FIRST to give women unrestricted voting rights in national elections in 1893) and SUSAN B. ANTHONY (I am a descendant of Susan B. Anthony, hence my theory that Feminism is genetic!)

THE NIGHT OF TERROR

The women were innocent and defenseless. And by the end of the night, they were barely alive. Forty-prison guards wielding clubs and their warden's blessing went on a rampage against the 33 helpless women wrongly convicted of "obstructing sidewalk traffic." They beat Lucy Burn, chained her hands to the cell bars above her head and left her hanging for the night, bleeding and gasping for air. They hurled Dora Lewis into a dark cell, smashed her head against an iron bed and knocked her out cold. Her cellmate, Alice Cosu, thought Lewis was dead and suffered a heart attack. Additional affidavits describe the guards grabbing, dragging, beating, choking, slamming, pinching, twisting and kicking the women.

Thus unfolded the "Night of Terror" on Nov. 15, 1917, when the warden at the Occoquan Workhouse in Virginia ordered his guards to teach a lesson to the suffragists imprisoned there because they dared to picket Woodrow Wilson's White House for the right to vote. For weeks, the women's only water came from an open pail. Their food--all of it colorless slops--was infested with worms. When one of the leaders, Alice Paul, embarked on a hunger strike, they tied her to a chair, forced a tube down her throat and poured liquid into her until she vomited. She was tortured like this for weeks until word was smuggled out to the press. It is jarring to watch Woodrow Wilson and his cronies try to persuade a psychiatrist to declare Alice Paul insane so that she could be permanently institutionalized. And it is inspiring to watch the doctor refuse. Alice Paul was strong, he said, and brave. That didn't make her crazy.
The doctor admonished the men: "Courage in women is often mistaken for insanity."

I am passionate about child protection. My career is in child safety/protection/intervention which is a very emotionally harrowing job but I wouldn't want to do anything else.

I AM STRONGLY OPPOSED TO THE CHEMICAL STRAITJACKET - RITALIN (far too many of the children I see have their pain 'silenced' by this appalling drug).

“In today’s society, writes Dr. Breggin (Talking Back to Ritalin), Ritalin is being used to medicate children into submission. This makes the drug yet one more version of the chemical straightjacket, ensuring that the teacher has an easier task in maintaining classroom order, but only by doping out the children who would otherwise make it harder. Dr. Breggin accuses our school system of waging a “war on children” in which schools are selectively suppressing some of the most intelligent, brave, energetic, and creative children.

He writes: There’s a war against children going on in our schools and the most outstanding of our children are the first to be targeted for control by drugs. We’re using drugs the way gardeners use herbicides to destroy weeds—except these toxins are aimed at the flowering of our children. Schools are not the only institutions that encourage the drugging of children. Controlling children with psychiatric medications is rampant in foster homes and in any institutional setting, such as juvenile detention centers, youth shelters/refuges and prisons, where docility is valued. "The psychiatric diagnosing and drugging of children should be viewed as a form of technological child abuse — conformity enforced by physical suppression of the brain. However, I do not blame the millions of parents and teachers who have been hoodwinked by organized psychiatry and medicine."

THR TRUTH ABOUT KIDDIE COKE (AKA RITALIN)
Common Names for Ritalin:
Diet Coke – Kiddy Cocaine – R-Ball – Vitamin R – Rids – Skittles – Smarties – Poor man's cocaine
Ritalin is the common name for methylphenidate, classified by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) as a Schedule II narcotic — the same classification as cocaine, morphine and amphetamines. It is abused by teens for its stimulant effects. While the law forbids unrestricted distribution of these powerful stimulants, the sad fact remains that these substances are freely available almost anywhere. "Kiddie cocaine," as it has been called, is handed out like candy. In some schools as many as 20 percent of the students take Ritalin regularly.

Reading books has always been, and continues to be, one of the greatest joys of my life.

Heroes:

Old Hippies, Feminists (preferably old too!), ANYONE IN RECOVERY or who has the desire to stop drinking.

Rebels, eccentrics, dissidents, activists and pacifists, loonies and weirdo's, anarchists, the marginalised and the excluded.
The first Hippie is said to have been a drop-out Jewish carpenter, named Jesus ("The Nazz"). He rebuked the state approved religious leaders of his time and instructed his disciples to sell what they had, give to the poor and follow him. Picture this guy, with long hair, a beard, a robe, a rope belt and sandals on, who just came to Jerusalem, his first trip for the Passover. Lo and behold, he walks into the Temple of Herod and upends all the tables of the money changers. “Usurers, get out of here, you turned this place into a den or robbers!” What an entrance! What a mouth! What heads turn!
“Who is this guy,” one money changer says to another. “Who knows! I heard someone say he thinks he’s the King of the Israelites.” “No,” the other says, “he must be nuts.” “Nuts or very ambitious. How can we get something on him?” “Somebody should turn him into the Romans.” “Hey, not a bad idea.” And someone says, “What’s his name?” And somebody answers, “Jesus, no less, you know short for ‘Yahweh,’ and Christ, the ‘anointed one,’ the Messiah.” “Wow, this guy’s got big ones!” “Yeah, he’s going places. Where, I’m not sure.”
Meanwhile, this Jesus of Nazareth climbs from his first dissident step to the height of his ministry, attracting huge crowds, thousands around Galilee and Perea (Israel and Jordan in modern day parlance). He speaks in parables, like the Prodigal Son and the Sower. He’s talking unconditional self-sacrifice and God-like love for God and all people. In his sermons he preaches service, humility, forgiveness of sin, faith, turning the other cheek, even loving your enemies as well as friends, and following the spirit as well as the letter of the law. He’s goes on, it is said, to have raised a fellow named Lazarus from the dead. The guy’s radical, out there, making waves in a dead sea. In other words, this guy is a hippie!
The Alcoholic Blackout: walking, talking, unconscious and lethal
Blackouts devastate individuals and families, and the price tag is enormous. Yet the police and courts, doctors and hospitals, know little or nothing about them. The social consequences of blackouts are enormous. I have no doubt there are thousands of Americans blacked out as I write this. Some fraction of them will cause great damage today.
My experience is that people will not believe blackouts are anything other than a transparent excuse for anti-social behavior. People in a blackout are in great peril. And no one realizes it. They risk harming themselves and others. Nothing less than death and ruined lives may be at stake. Blackouts are not harmless fun. People in a blackout are potentially lethal, a danger to themselves and all others. They walk but have no idea where they are going, talk but do not know what they say, drive without destination. They are in an unconscious state. If they have a violent streak, they are a serious menace. (by Donal F. Sweeney, M.D. with Robert A. Liston)
MINDFUL RECOVERY
I FIRMLY believe that my alcoholic cravings and mental obsessions have been healed by God's Grace, by following the 12 Steps of the AA program, applying nutritional, neuro-biochemical and orthomolecular restoration/maintenance and by practicing a Buddhist philosophy based on "mindfulness"
"You are not your thoughts. Our thoughts take us away from being here now. If I am thinking about the past, or worried about the future, I am a prisoner of my thoughts. When I take a moment to observe myself having thoughts, I am no longer the thoughts. I get to be and observe at the same time. That's why if I continue to come back to my breath which always occurs in the here and now, it draws me into the present. And from that vantage point I can observe as past and future attempt to draw me away from the moment"
