Little Women

Brief sun and blue sky this morning

lighting up the daffodils on my kitchen window sill
Followed this afternoon by
black clouds, hail and freezing sleet.
Short blog as I've just got back from a late showing of Little Women...Meg and Jo and Amy and Beth.....and their men. Worth seeing.....I can't remember all the details of the book I read as a teenager so don't know if the film is faithful to it....but I enjoyed it.
This quote from Robert Holden would apply to Jo....but it would be much harder for women to live it in the 1870s.
You didn't come here to be normal.
You came here to be you.
