Our Mission |
|
The mission of Modern B.A.G. Ladies is to provide women with their daily dose of
Believe fuel and charge women to
Act, because women deep down desire to
Go to places they thought were only in their dreams
We will spread our new found joy, shred our own and other's fears and just have more fun. We are real! We are not yes ladies! We are OH YES Ladies and it feels pretty damn good!
Today MBAGL fuels your Believe Act Go Traveling Sanctuary with periodic emails. Sometimes with thoughts to ponder, other times we will challenge you to act and we will absolutely provide some get real, fun information. Our future is only limited to the dreams we can dream. So get ready for the ride because we can have some pretty outrageous dreams sometimes.

Greetings!
I'm high. I'm low. I'm high. I'm low. I'm fast. I'm slow. I'm in. I'm out. I'm in. I'm out. I whisper. I shout. I'm happy. I'm sad. I'm glad. I'm mad. I thrive. I survive. I'm left. I'm right.
Maybe my hormones are out of whack. WHERE DID MY MIDDLE GROUND GO? Is that the wishy washy place to be? Ugh, I am so confused. Lordy, I almost feel like I'm having an adult case of adolescent mood swings along with the rest of America.
A Place Of Extremes......
If the media is a reflection of how America is doing (questionable at times) we are becoming a nation of extremes. The hope President Obama choruses over the air waves, yet predators ready to pounce at the first sign of failure. His stimulation plan not received well by Republicans and everyone is ready to write off bipartisan forever. The whole notion of the permanency of anything, whether for the good or the bad. The middle ground just doesn't seem to be the "COOL" place to be these days.
As I wallowed in a state of confusion over my middle ground, preparing this week's newsletter I arrived at this conclusion...
"If I were a tree, standing tall and straight, I will allow myself to yield to the winds that pull me from left to right, from this extreme to the next. My yielding, centered by my core, is not due to a force that bends me. It is a a graceful yielding motivated by innocence and wonderment. I lean to understand. I lean to observe. I come back to my "middle" to reflect. As I lean to and fro I maintain my young flexibility. The winds will not break me. The winds will teach me."
Our trees are trees weathering a formative storm today. It will require us to be flexible and sometimes yielding. If I insist on being rigid in my core (middle) I may break. Gracefully we must yield, yet always returning to our core. The time spent at the core is not important. It's only important that you have it.
Finally I realize that I have not lost my middle ground. It only feels that way because my stays are shorter, but always within sight.
I think this hard rock Dancing B*a*g Lady just tried on the leotard of an interpretive dancer.
This week I am sharing some articles that will help you thrive and survive in these times.

- Stand tall and straight.
- Now imagine a huge tornado coming your way.
- Don't brace yourself and become stiff.
- Bend at your waist.
- Flap your arms.
- Sway back and forth.
- Make noises like the wind.
Now laugh because your look a little ridiculous. Ha! I really wonder if you are playful enough to actually do it. Come on, I dare you to do it. You can close the door and lock it so nobody will see you.
I just did it. Boy my back it stiff. |
