We’ve come to the right place. The pull is strong.Praise the Many-Taloned One, Sekhmet said. My paws are killing me.The lights of the city flickered in eye-burning imitation of the starry sky. It’s not going to be easy, Orion said. The smell alone makes me gag. It’s not just the physical stench, but also the foul odor of self-righteousness and fear. And some of the fear is mine. I’ve never failed before.Big Dragons Don't Cry highlights the separation between humans and the rest of life that allows ecological disasters to unfold.I used the medium of fantasy to imagine new possibilities:What would the world be like if humans and animals understood and respected each other?What could humans learn if we no longer saw ourselves as apart from nature but entered wholeheartedly into the dance of life? We might trip over our feet at first, but practice makes improvement.

According to Psalm 30:5, “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy will come in the morning”. God tells us that our sorrow will come, but it will not remain with us for long. There are many characters in the bible like Ruth and Ester who had to suffer, but great were their rewards in the end. Ruth was poor and left her country to follow her mother-in-law, however, she was faithful and God blessed her with a Spiritual and not to mention, rich husband who was a good provider. Likewise, Ester, a Jewish mother-less girl, was obedient to God and became a highly respected queen. I am sure that these women shared some tears of sorrow for a season; in the end they shared tears of joy. I want to encourage you, not to give up on your dreams or your goals because if you have faith the sides of a mustard seed, you will become winners in the end!

A New York Times Notable Book of the Year. “[A] wry and witty examination of where feminism went wrong and, occasionally, right . . . sharp, funny.” —Kirkus Reviews This latest offering from critically acclaimed author Fay Weldon is a darkly comic romp through the minefields of friendship and feminism. On a balmy evening in 1971, five women meet in a cramped living room in the suburbs of London. Tired of their husbands and their own unsatisfying lives, they form the aptly named Medusa, a book publishing house founded on the principle of “getting even.” With wry and savvy humor, Weldon weaves us through twenty years of these women’s lives, as good intentions fall by the wayside and the hazards of their new politics, sex, and infidelity take their toll. “Weldon at her feisty best. Always the mistress of the ironic understatement . . . she has built here a dramatic Technicolor landscape . . . Sly, arch, poised, and funny . . . Big Girls Don’t Cry stands absolutely in its own right.” —Mail on Sunday (London) “A postmodern comedy of manners that owes more to Jane Austen than Germaine Greer . . . She here reaches beyond the stereotypes of the good woman and bad man to create a novelistic family that is genuinely down and dirty, real and gritty.” —The Washington Times “Supremely satisfying and very funny.” —Cleveland Plain Dealer “A characteristically tart look back at the early days of feminism as experienced by four Londoners . . . Weldon wryly applauds the effort it takes to remain faithful to the cause.” —Publishers Weekly
