Throughout the text, I was connecting our current society’s view of women and the role they are expected to perform. I sugg Read more of this blog post »

Jeanne’s Quotes

“Don't aim at success ― the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side-effect of one's dedication to a cause greater than oneself.”
― Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search For Meaning
