"Women are the mules of the world." - Zora Neale Hurston
I have thought about this quote often since I became pregnant with my son. It seems I am nothing but a mule to my husband and his family. Just a work horse with no feelings or expectations, there to take care of their offspring and expected to work and meet all of their expectations.
I have never had this feeling before and I certainly never want to experience it again.
From here on out I will regain control of my own life and live to meet my own expectations, no one else's.
My children are everything to me and will continue to be so. But I look at life very different now than when I began this relationship.
