gift of motherhood

part two

We need only think of how the gift of motherhood
is often penalized rather than rewarded
even though humanity owes its very survival to this gift
Certainly, much remains to be done
to prevent discrimination against those
who have chosen to be wives and mothers

Letter to Women, Message of His Holiness POPE JOHN PAUL II, July 10

“so i was sitting in on a meeting with the
other managers, and we were talking about
presenting our project at the upcoming
trade show, when our boss said, oh, none
of us will have to go i’ll just hire some
dumb - and then he looked at me, with my
long blonde hair - some model to demonstrate
it instead. and this is the same guy who has
a photo in his office of a woman in a
negligee grabbing her crotch, i mean, it’s not
even a tasteful photo. i wonder what he’d
think if he came into my office and there was
a playgirl magazine sitting on my desk?
one of my supervisors even kept asking me
to go out and get lunches for everyone, or to
fax stuff for him. i finally had to tell him no.
i said, why don’t you ask john? he’s been here
less than me, you could ask him to do it.
but he never did. i look around, and i think,
i’m the only woman here. why is that?”
