标题: 蓝色忧伤(女人印象集锦)
我想每个中国女人第一该学会的是懂得该怎么爱护自己.....
什么时候,我们能够真正懂得独立、自强、自尊、自爱。。。。懂得捍卫自己的权利。。。

不经意看到了这篇非常好的文章,也许应该让每个中国女人好好看一看。
比起历史上的女人,今天的女人幸福多了,社会给了我们很多的公平机会。
然而,从我们自己的内心,我们是否懂得维护自己的权利,懂得爱自己?

热爱我们自己,亲爱的姐妹们,学会如何爱自己,好好地爱我们自己。。。

The Chicago Women's Liberation Union: An Introduction by the CWLU Herstory Editorial Committee (2000)

"I am all women, I am every woman. Wherever women are suffering, I am there. Wherever women are struggling, I am there. Wherever women are fighting for their liberation I am there."

- from the CWLU founding conference

With these words still ringing in their ears, a small group of women left Palatine, Illinois to organize a revolution. It was 1969 and the founding conference of the Chicago Women's Liberation Union (CWLU) was over. The founders of the CWLU had come of age in the 1960's; a time of sit-ins, freedom rides, peace marches, strikes, riots and assassinations. The war in Southeast Asia was raging and campuses across the nation were in turmoil over the issues of war, imperialism and racism.
Women had thrown themselves into the struggles of the 1960's with a ferocious energy. From the dangerous backroads of Mississippi during voter registration campaigns to the streets of Washington DC to protest the Southeast Asia war, women were there in impressive numbers.

Yet in this struggle for freedom, women were not free. Men made the decisions while women made the coffee. Women typed the speeches so that men could speak the words. At first individual women suffered through this in silence and humiliation. But then a few brave women spoke up and said what was on the minds of their more reticent sisters. By 1968, a fledging women's liberation movement was born and America would never be the same again.

In America of the late 1960's, it was perfectly legal for women to be paid less than men. There were no women bus drivers, welders, firefighters, news anchors, CEO's or Supreme Court Justices. Women professors, doctors, scientists or lawyers were rare. Gays and lesbians were forced to live "in the closet" for fear of vicious persecution. Women were denied credit by banks and states could bar women from sitting on juries. Women knew next to nothing about their bodies and were afraid to honestly discuss their sexuality. Terms like "domestic violence" or "sexual harassment" did not exist and rape victims had probably "asked for it". Abortion was illegal and women seeking them risked death and injury at the hands of incompetent quacks.


The women who organized the CWLU in 1969 wanted to eliminate the sexism which made these abuses possible. They defined sexism as "the systematic keeping down of women for the benefit of people in power". They had no illusions about the immensity of their task.






"We know that changing women's position in society isn't going to be easy. It's going to require changes in expectations, jobs, childcare education. It's going to change the distribution of power over the rest of us to all people sharing power and sharing in the decisions that affect our lives. These are major, radical changes. We consider our struggle revolutionary because it will require a total restructuring of society, not merely making room for more women within this structure".- from a CWLU statement of purpose.



























But the members of the CWLU were an extraordinary group of people with vision, commitment and the courage to blaze a trail for others to follow.






Heather Booth had gone to Mississippi in 1964 to register voters in the face of KKK terrorism. After helping found the CWLU she helped organize the Action Committee for Decent Childcare (ACDC) to challenge the powerful Richard J. Daley political machine's indifference to childcare.

Vivian Rothstein had traveled to North Viet Nam in 1967 at the height of the war to see the extent of the destruction for herself. Her experiences with the women's organizations in Viet Nam inspired her to emulate their example here in the US. Long before there was anything like Women's Studies, Vivian Rothstein conceived of a Liberation School where women could learn how to free themselves from their oppression.

Naomi Weisstein, a brilliant research scientist, had written "sychology Constructs the Female" which demolished generations of male supremacist pseudo-science. She then helped organize the Chicago Women's Liberation Rock Band to shake up the sexist world of pop music.

Ruth Surgal came out of the anti-war movement and joined Jody Parsons to help build an underground abortion service that performed over 11,000 safe, inexpensive and illegal abortions.

Marie "Micki" Leaner, from a Southside steelworker family, joined Prison Project, which organized for improvements in women's prisons while working directly with inmates at Dwight Prison in Illinois.

Estelle Carol, a young University of Chicago art student, decided that art had been done all wrong by men and helped found the Chicago Women's Graphics Collective to decorate the walls of America with colorful messages of women's revolution.

Suzanne Davenport and Jenny Rohrer did not let their media inexperience stand in the way of creating the Chicago Maternity Center, a powerful documentary film exposing the deep and pervasive sexism within the medical establishment.

These individuals were among the hundreds of women who participated in the CWLU. The CWLU was very open to new ideas and if a woman or group of women had a cool idea that would help the struggle, a workgroup would form and they could try it out.

In much of the women's movement of the time, the emphasis was on personal transformation through conscious raising groups. Small circles of women would meet to help each other overcome the psychological and social effects of sexism. The CWLU did not ignore personal transformation, but was more focused on organizing women for revolutionary change.

This may be seen in the many workgroups, chapters and projects that made up the actual day to day work of the organization. A few examples:
















Nationally the women's liberation movement was very loosely organized and organizations tended to blossom and fade quickly. But from the beginning, the CWLU saw itself as part of a long struggle. This meant creating an organization that would survive the inevitable bumps in the road.

The CWLU was always a delicate balance among its many smaller workgroups, projects, chapters, and the central governing body. There was a strong emphasis on democratic process and open discussion, which inevitably meant many long and often frustrating meetings. Democracy is never a smooth process and the presence of so many strong opinionated women naturally led to vigorous debate. Yet throughout most of its history, the CWLU recognized that diversity was essential to its unity.

Although many of the people whom the CWLU served though its various projects were women of color, the CWLU was acutely aware that its actual active membership was overwhelmingly white. The social realities of the time made a truly racially mixed feminist organization impractical, so the CWLU made an effort to work with other organizations where women of color were active. An example was the Committee to End Sterilization Abuse which involved the CWLU, Mujeres Latinas en Accion, and the Puerto Rican Socialist Party. The CWLU also worked with Operation PUSH on a campaign to free Jo Anne Little, a young Black woman who was accused of murder after she killed a jail guard who had tried to rape her.

CWLU members usually concentrated on their day to day project organizing, but the group also did a lot thinking about political strategy and theory. It evolved into a socialist-feminist organization, dedicated to the elimination of capitalism and all forms of oppression. This distinguished them from reform feminists like the National Organization for Women (NOW), who while dedicated to gender equality, did not seriously question the capitalist system. It also distinguished them from the radical feminists who were more hostile to men and often drawn toward utopian female separatism. The CWLU was an all-woman organization, but men were usually welcome at its public events and the group carefully aimed its attacks on male chauvinism, not on men as a group.

By the mid 1970's, the CWLU could see the changes that the women's liberation movement had helped set into motion. Abortion was legal. Women were breaking down employment barriers and going into formerly male dominated fields. Women were fighting back against unequal pay and sexual harassment. Gays and lesbians were coming out of the closet. Rape Crisis Centers and Domestic Violence Centers were no longer being seen as "counter-cultural" institutions. There was a mass movement (ultimately unsuccessful) to pass an Equal Rights Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Perhaps most tellingly, conservative activists like Phyllis Shlafly launched a powerful right-wing backlash against "women's lib", proving that the movement was being taken seriously by its enemies.

In a report to the 1975 CWLU annual conference, CWLU leaders predicted a bright future for the organization. The 1975 Socialist Feminist Conference at Yellow Springs, OH had attracted over a 1000 women. The CWLU was recognized as a model for socialist feminist organizing and the group had strengthened its ties with other Midwest Women's Unions. CWLU leaders pointed to the group's growing involvement with women of color. It compared the CWLU's situation with the disarray that NOW was experiencing after its disastrous attempt to launch a nationwide women's strike.

The optimism of the CWLU leadership proved to be unfounded. A small number of CWLU members, dissatisfied with what they perceived as the group's white middle class orientation unleashed a scathing attack on the organization's direction and leadership. This small group passed out a leaflet at the 1976 International Women's Day event which denounced feminism, lesbianism and the ERA. The contents of the leaflet rejected some of the CWLU's most basic principles. The CWLU went into a deep internal crisis over how to deal with the situation. The organization eventually split apart and in 1977 formally disbanded.

The death of the CWLU was an agonizing and wrenching experience for those who went through it. The memories are still painful even a quarter century later. The reasons why the CWLU did not survive this ordeal are still not well understood.

The death of the CWLU should not be allowed to obscure the organization's positive contributions toward the liberation of women in America. Thousands of women were touched by its many organizing projects and it set a powerful example of what a group of smart audacious women could do.






"We saw the value of working for a goal much larger than ourselves. We saw that you could really change, change people's lives, and change the reality by taking action."- CWLU founding member Heather Booth
Today former CWLU members are working in social services, education, law, publishing, manufacturing, electronic media, politics, healthcare and other varied fields. They are union organizers, writers, artists, administrators, nurses, filmmakers, teachers, professors, small business owners, doctors, office workers, political activists and more. Many are parents and grandparents. Some are retired and working harder than ever for positive social change.






For the most part they have kept the values that they learned in the women's liberation movement. The ugly media stereotype that the "boomer" generation betrayed its ideals does not seem to apply to the women who went through the CWLU experience. Now they are passing those ideals down to new generations.

标题: 把你的名字深情地刻进你的内心深处
女人 你的名字是月亮

-----读某离婚女人的帖子有感

-------送给蒙城孤独的姐妹


女人 你的名字不是弱者

不要因为蜜蜂,蝴蝶的自由

而甘愿你的美丽 凋谢在冷冷的风雨中

不要因为春天已过而错过秋天的魅力

即使错过秋季我们还有冬天

也许有人更爱春天鲜嫩

也许有人更爱夏天的热烈

那又有何妨

就让我们给自己一个秋天的红叶

细细的叶脉缀满灵魂丰富多彩的色彩

即使走进冬季 也要如覆雪的松林

至少让每一个人感受她的幽深

至少 我们自己的心 能感受

冬天纯洁的美丽与坚强


只是无论如何 不要成一片戈壁沙漠<O:p</O:p

<O:p</O:p

女人 把你的名字写成月亮

不是路边的小草

可以让人践踏

不是乡间路边的野花

可以被随便采摘 没有真爱

你不是无茎的蔓驼萝,牵牛花

赖以攀援生存

你是天上灿烂的星辰

无论多么渺小 也有星辉闪耀

无论星光多么微弱

也是宇宙一颗独立的星辰

爱自己 我亲爱的 亲爱的姐妹们

把你的名字, 深情地刻进你的内心深处

在你的世界里


就是天上最美丽的月亮

即使月光源于太阳

你 也能独立飞行于宇宙

能承受孤独寂寞的人是美丽的, 男人因为孤独寂寞而深沉高贵,女人因为孤独寂寞而清丽坚强.

孤独寂寞的人不意味着她/他没有朋友,没有友谊,没有爱情,没有亲情.真正懂得享受孤独寂寞之美的人,是完整意义上的人,追求完美,追求人生心灵世界最高境界沟通的人....
孤独是对自我的思考,对自我的追求
寂寞是对美的执着

人生因喧闹而多彩, 因寂寞而深邃

呵呵...说的不错.

孤独寂寞是一种选择,不是被动的无奈....完美的人生是可以追求的,但是它是不存在的...人生当中总有不尽人意的地方.....渴望被别人了解是每一个人的愿望,但是真正了解你的人太少了, 所以:人生得一知己,足矣.

把该思考的问题想通了,就没有必要在孤单下去....花花世界,诱惑很多..能保持清醒独立的思想的人不是很多.

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

And when all the broken hearted people
Living in the world agree,
There will be an answer, let it be.
For though they may be parted there is
Still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be.

Let it be, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
There will be an answer, let it be.

Let it be, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.
(instrumental break)

Let it be, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

And when the night is cloudy,
There is still a light that shines on me.
Shine on 'til tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

Let it be, let it be.
Let it be, yeah let it be.
There will be an answer, let it be.


Let it be, let it be.
Let it be, yeah let it be.
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

Let it be, let it be.
Let it be, let it be.
And there will be no sadness, let it be

标题: FAREWELL TO YOU
<CENTER>海  韵</CENTER><CENTER></CENTER><CENTER></CENTER><CENTER>徐志摩</CENTER>



  

  “女郎,单身的女郎,
   你为什么留恋
   这黄昏的海边?——
  女郎,回家吧,女郎!”
   “啊不;回家我不回,
   我爱这晚风吹:”——
   在沙滩上,在暮霭里,
  有一个散发的女郎——
       徘徊,徘徊。

  

  “女郎,散发的女郎,
   你为什么彷徨
   在这冷清的海上?
  女郎,回家吧,女郎!”
   “啊不;你听我唱歌,
   大海,我唱,你来和:”——
   在星光下,在凉风里,
  轻荡着少女的清音——
       高吟,低哦。

  

  “女郎,胆大的女郎!
   那天边扯起了黑幕,
   这顷刻间有恶风波——
  女郎,回家吧,女郎!”
   “啊不;你看我凌空舞,
   学一个海鸥没海波:”——
   在夜色里,在沙滩上,
  急旋着一个苗条的身影——
       婆娑,婆娑。

  

  “听呀,那大海的震怒,
   女郎回家吧,女郎!
  看呀,那猛兽似的海波,
   女郎,回家吧,女郎!”
  “啊不;海波他不来吞我,
   我爱这大海的颠簸!”
   在潮声里,在波光里,
   啊,一个慌张的少女在海沫里,
        蹉跎,蹉跎。

  

  “女郎,在哪里,女郎?
   在哪里,你嘹亮的歌声?
  在哪里,你窈窕的身影?
   在哪里,啊,勇敢的女郎?”
  黑夜吞没了星辉,
   这海边再没有光芒;
  海潮吞没了沙滩,
   沙滩上再不见女郎,——
        再不见女郎!

标题: 海的坟墓
                          海的坟墓

  〖荷兰〗赫·布洛魁仁


    在北海岸几处零落的砂丘中间,矗立着一间穷苦的渔夫的小屋。当海滨的暴风来时,窗子上的玻璃,插在边框里琅琅地响着,屋内炉火的烈焰高高地喷着。
    但现在是在寂静的夜晚,满天的繁星放着闪烁的光芒;镜一般平的海面上,全没有汹涌的波浪;只有那海水碰在岸上,时刻发出单调的劈拍的声音。月儿放射出银灰色的光辉,照在光赤的砂丘上面,而且在海水里,映出一个浑圆的影子。
    从那小屋的矮窗里.放射出依稀的灯光,时时的移动着,到后来就熄灭了。显然那渔夫是已经睡下了。一切都已睡着了。只有那周围的砂丘依旧寂静地屹峙着;连那飞沫拍岩的侮水,也渐渐地困倦起来了,仿佛想要休息一会儿,养一养神,待到了明天,暴风来时,再鼓起些新勇气。只有那受了惊恐的海鸥的叫声,偶然打破夜的静寂,但是随后,一切都又变成了静寂。
    这时候有人开门出来,一个女孩子从小屋里出来,她的模样,长的又温柔又刚健,金色的卷发,披散在光赤的颈上,在微风中飘动着。她的轻软的脚步,踏在海边的砂粒上,几乎一步一步都听得出来。
    走近了海边,她就停下来,拿出一顶小花冠,放在海水上面。海水的小波浪玩弄着,跳舞着,把那花冠卷去了。她一边默默地想着,一边看着那水中的花冠,那可爱的月光趁势在她百合花一般白的额上亲了一个吻。
    她是渔夫的小女儿、每天晚上她走到海边,放一束鲜花在波浪上面——算是送给在远方的她的恋人的敬礼。她的恋人出去好久了,从这一处到那一处,走遍了无尽的海洋。没有人给她带来一个信息,谁也不知道他还活着呢,或者已经是死了,更不知道几时她才能看见他。但是她挟着坚贞的爱情,她坚信着上帝,而且她希望着……
    他们是这样地约好了的,当他们最后一次互相拥抱的时候,为了他俩中间要有一个信号,每天夜晚,当星月皎洁的辰光,他俩各在异地,同声地唱着恋爱之歌。他在远处的海船上,高高地攀在桅杆的顶端,除了水天相接的汪洋大海,看不见什么;她呢,却是在北海岸旁的家乡。
    现在她立在薄暗的海岸上了,胸中挟着一腔坚贞的爱,仰头向着天上的繁星,用了缠绵的音调,唱出她的恋爱之歌。清晰的歌声,在静夜里,传播到很远的地方。
    夜的风吹来,使她的肩头抖颤了、她又仰着看了看青青的天色,随后便缓步走回家了。心里还暗暗地替他祷告着;他呢,此时此刻,还漂泊在远方无情的海水上。
    有一次,是暴风雨的那天。带着飓风的黑云猛烈地袭过天空。海鸥在旋卷着的浪花上面飞着,惶恐地叫着。
    可是那晚上,那女孩子照旧走到了海边,送一束鲜花给她远方的恋人,而且照旧唱了一回恋爱之歌,虽然狂风把她的卷发吹散了,大雨把她的玉容打坏了,浪花拍着她光赤的双脚了。
    一年一年都这样地过着,她的恋人依旧是不曾归来。
    许多挂着旗帜的大船舶都从远处驶回来了,但是没把他载回来,没把他——她那心爱的人儿——载回来。
    许多勇敢的水手们;都向她行了敬礼,用了最美丽的话来恭维她。但她却毫不欢悦,因为这些不是他的声音,他的声音,那只有在幻想里还隐约听得到。
    年月来的又来,去的又去,和海边的波浪一样。渔夫的女儿的玉颜变成了忧郁、灰白而且干枯了,她的双眼充满了泪痕,因为如今——她知道了,她自己感觉到了——他是永不回来了。
    那时她便不再在夜晚歌唱,因为他也已不再在桅杆上歌唱了。但那鲜花,每天晚上,她还是送去,放在波浪上面。她这样算是装饰他的坟墓——那广大的,广大的海……
