kspenmoll Yes-that is why she could not truly feel free herself-her religious & royalist views confined her thinking, creating unreconcilable conflicts within her being & thinking. 5d

kspenmoll I think single women are accepted without thought as part of today‘s fabric of society. I think it‘s rather recent though.In the 1950s-70s women were viewed those who couldn‘t find a husband,rather than seen as women with autonomous choice.This may just be middle class experience.The rich could do as they pleased due to their money & power- though maybe some did want marriage. People of lower class or of color had to work whether married or not. 5d
kspenmoll I myself was single until 36. I had by then accepted that living on my own was a rich life for me-I did not need a husband.when we met, I was totally myself, not looking for anything different. 5d

kspenmoll I do not think I would have been as brave as Astell at the age she started writing. I was just then trying to free myself of the Catholic box I was in- now would be a different story as life has taught me to let go of my fears, investigate who I truly am, become my authentic self. 5d

Tamra Send some heat “up nort” please! 🙏🏾 7d
Crazeedi Your table is beautiful 7d
kspenmoll @Tamra Let‘s switch weather! We are not only experiencing a highly unusual heat wave for this time of year, but I live in the Farmington Valley, which is a highly humid area so it makes the heat index higher. 7d
kspenmoll @Crazeedi Thanks Diane! 💙🩵 7d
Tamra @kspenmoll blech - I could do without the humidity. 7d

I DID IT AGAIN!!! I keep getting so engrossed in the narrative and my mind gets going, I seem to miss the division between chapters. So I have read chapters 3-4 this week… so my questions come from both (I think). Do I post them all now? Post half of them? Or should I wait and post them all next week? Thoughts?

This came up in part of our discussion already, so I thought I would share this with the group. I‘m sure we can find inspiration and plenty to discuss. We‘ll call this the bonus discussion for chapters 1 and 2. lol

Also, somewhere last week I missed the transition from chapter 1 to chapter 2, so all the questions I posted last week cover the first 2 chapters… so turns it I did not get behind one week in! Yay me! So discuss away!
