I wish we could change the thinking around work and motherhood (especially for creatives) so that the first thing we think of is enhancement, rather than diminishment. Obviously, we can't make more time. But I do think the more we do, the better we use our time, which is the next best thing. We never know where our roots are reaching, but it's so good to keep them searching, even in the dark. They're still all there, feeding the proverbial mother tree. I'm beginning to trust (in my ninth year of mothering/ lawyering/ writing) that, in time, I'll understand how all of the off-shoots made sense, together.

Love the way you broke it down that a woman can be multi-facited and so much more, all at the same time.
