Just the thought of it, takes my breathe away—the possibility of a woman president.

May all women rejoice!
This is what women WILL DO.

The Fiery Light

I, the fiery light of divine wisdom,

I ignite the beauty of the plains,

I sparkle the waters.

I burn the sun and the moon and the stars,

With wisdom I order all rightly,

I adorn the earth.

I am the breeze that nurtures all things green.

I am the rain coming from the dew

That causes the grasses to laugh

With the joy of life.

I call forth tears, the aroma of holy work.

I am the yearning for good.

                  —Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179)
