Faith married a long time friend. Mr. Faith married really, really
\nwell, In fact, at one point, the ‘not quite decided to be Mr.
\nFaith’  was told by another long time friend of mine, “If you
\ndon’t marry her I will”. I don’t know exactly when this happened, but
\nit might have been while we were all anarchist swimming in Spy Pond. <\/p>\n

They were a two career couple struggling with just how New Age they
\nwere going to be. Her job was not the career she had imagined for
\nherself in her youth [ She had had the creative urge from early on],
\nbut it seemed to meet her basic need.  Eventually they decided to
\ntry to make baby. I think it was more her idea than his, but I don’t
\nactually know. When she became pregnant her job became just fine thank
\nyou very much. When she lost the baby, her job and everything else in
\nthe universe became without form and void.<\/p>\n

There was light again, then dark. Light. Dark. I don’t know the exact
\nnumber. Maybe I shouldn’t. But eventually the lamp stayed lit. My
\nbrother, 1944, was  “Gee honey I don’t know if I’ll make it back.”
\nI, 1947, am an accident of enthusiasm at being back. But the daughter
\nof Faith was anything but an accident.<\/p>\n

Lisa is a stay at home mom and quite proud of it, thank you very much.
\nShe was an analyst and may be again. But for now, raising the kids is
\nenough — almost. She blogs her life and  is a significant
\ncontributor to the advancement of blogcraft.<\/p>\n

So tell me now, is there a relationship between the gift
\nof creativity a woman has in her womb and the gift of creativity she
\nhas in her mind? Should we [or could we] try to create a partition if
\nnature thinks otherwise?<\/p>\n

\nThe old bachelor by the door who looks after things.
