YOPJ - Kate Chopin and Me

Waves of brown, short stature, penetrating eyes, silly and helpful. Tending to be an outcast, overly plump and yet still pretty. Quiet and calm natured yet capable of being bold and boisterous.
 
Sounds like somebody I know who went and bleached her hair platinum. Only Kate never did that, Jess did.
 
And by Jess, I mean me. I read Chopin's wiki page and think it's a past life. (Kidding, not my true theology)
 
Actually, I would never want her plot line. It involved losing her precious mate. I can't imagine trying to cope with that fate. But the things I relate to include how she loved writing; putting her heart and values into it. She did not give up!
 
Kate wrote about women's sexuality in a light fitting a future she never saw. I also hope to avoid that fate.  Similarly, my art spotlights motherhood to the point of breastfeeding jokes and mom figures who reveal their fury and the limitations of the office of motherhood, revealing a side of females often less illuminated.
