I\'m sorry David, but someone, somewhere , sometime is going to accuse you of cultural appropriation.
Quite possibly not here....

Yasmen takes her Hajib off.
Cassie58 said:
Yasmen has broken free of the shackles. No longer a caged bird oppressed, she is now able to live her own life in the manner of her own choosing. And she has chosen Western values. Your story is most appropriate for International Women’s Day David.

Intriguing words David and could be so very true, any organised religion is a farce and giving it up, as I did, brings such freedom within oneself.

Oh wow, I absolutely adore this. I\'ve re-read a few times and fall in love with a new detail each time. You are a marvelous writer.

Matthew apart, your line \'Love alone will not feed the starving\' shouts at the vast nonsense spoken (and especially poemed) re \'Love\'.

Hard work
Goldfinch60 said:
I completely agree with this David. My wife had dementia and for about five years I had to look after her 24/7 and if people think they know about dementia and haven\'t live 24/7 with somebody who had it they just haven\'t a f*cking clue.
When she passed just over four years ago it was a release for both of us. We had been married for nearly 40 years and never ever had a row.

Margaret\'s circumstances are, I think not uncommon, even today. A kind of passive abuse with ties to \'duty\', \'faithfulness\' and so on. This situation, for me, very well told and true.

Sadly we live in violent times. You have mentioned so much here which shows just how destructive our species is. Will it ever change? I doubt it. Descriptive to read and well written. Thank you David.
