I don't know how to respond, since your take on the longest war is beyond my experience. It sure brings home to me how deeply uncommitted I am to most causes. I hope your journey continues fruitful and your passionate advocacy helps to redress the injustices we experience within the patriarchy. And may all sexes someday find peace and common ground on which to walk together. LWIII Thanks, Jude, for your powerful comment on Julia Cameron.

Much of what Cameron describes of a psychic and psychotic-break nature has been addressed in the elemental feminist philosophy of somebody Cameron quotes in The Artist's Way (Mary Daly). Maybe Cameron has profited too much from the prevailing social system to consider the rot of misogyny at its roots. She seems to have tried many methods of "dealing" within the prevailing system which oppresses so many women subjected to men's rules and male-dominant cultures. Images for promoting freedom at http://thelongestwar.wordpress.com/ I probably wouldn't be blogging today or taking photographs if not for the 90's published work of Julia Cameron and Mark Bryan --- but in the end I moved past the Artist's Way personal reliance on God-bag-hood and ended my denial and misguided "acceptance" about the politics of man. In "process speak," it's all a journey. Ultimately as we travel, we may have peace and freedom along the way.
