I will read your book, so forgive me if you covered this in it. Do understand that a majority of women who bear children were not planning to have a child. But, when presented with the reality, joyfully embraced the advent of a baby. A majority of these mothers found it neither meaningful or disastrous. It just is, a flawed child born to a flawed woman, the nurturance of both by mother, society and, through time, to each other, the pain of it not always working out well. I respect that you carefully chose whether to become a mother — personal happiness in women is a road to peace. But I hope you can lose any sense of a missed opportunity, because it was not ever that.
