Happy New Year 2010 !!!









What a beautiful transition!!!!!
2009 is over and 2010 has begun, with such an entrance and spectacular night sky from Mother Nature!!!
Heavenly Rain, which we so rarely see, thunder with such a roar, lightning to compete with the fireworks and all at the stroke of midnight!!!
Mother Nature, the greatest Mothers of all gave us a Divine performance to welcome the New Year in!

2010 is gonna be a good one, and I predict we will feel the joy again and again in 2010~!

How do you feel?

I wonder....are you OK with not being a Mum?

It just occurred to me that perhaps there are a lot of 'non-mums' out there who are suffering, who are NOT happy with not being a mum, or who are trying so hard to be a mum, please share your thoughts if you feel like it, I would love to hear how it is for you...if it helps to share it that is.

I'm not a Mum, I have a Mum.... and I love MUMS!!!

Although I'm not a Mum, I'm sure I'd be an OK Mum if I were one! ...and I think it needs to be said from the outset, that I certainly don't have anything against Mums! I am not a Mum because it just never happened, not by choice or because I don't like children, or for any other conscious decision, it just didn't happen!

Mum's are great! I love all the Mums I know; but I don't envy them and I don't feel any regrets; I accept and enjoy who I am!
And as I said, I do think I would have been an OK Mum, and there are times I am glad that I'm not a Mum, but I just wanted to mention that I love mums and I don't have any hangups etc. about Mums, or mum's clubs, or mum's groups, blogs etc., etc.!!!

I am a strong, confident, powerful, loving, creative woman and I look forward to sharing my thoughts and life with you, and hopefully hearing from other women (mums and non-mums!) how they experience their daily lives!

looking forward to hearing from you soon :o)

I'm a stay at home working woman, but I'm not a Mum!

I could say "This is for you!! ...for all you 'non-mums' out there!" But that sounds too pretentious and it is really for me, as I can't speak for anyone else except me, and of course if anyone out there enjoys reading what I think or likes what I have to say that's 'good'.... but I won't lose any sleep if you don't like what I say or if you disagree with me for any reason, because that's your prerogative, (must look that word up!). At the same time, I don't want to generalise or imply that I have all the answers, I don't! So, this is just a Blog about Me and who I think I am!
So why it's called ''I'm not a mum'' ? .....because I woke up in the middle of the night thinking about how there are so many 'mum's clubs/groups/networks/blogs/webpages etc., out there, and so I thought it was time to start one for the non-mums! Not that I think 'we' are not welcome in the mum's groups, I am currently a member of a few, but just the fact that I'm 'not a mum' makes me feel a bit awkward at times when discussion about being one, comes up and so I am proclaiming my 'not a mum' title with pride (but no prejudice!)
And hey, for whatever reason there are a LOT of us who don't have children!
So this is a gesture for any 'non-mums' who may feel the need to have a niche especially for them!
Naturally as one gets older, one gets used to not having kids or being a Mum, and I'm totally fine with 'not being a mum' (so why did i start this blog - you may well ask!) and except for starting this blog, I never usually give it a second thought, but I do know there are a lot of women 'out there' who are NOT fine with not being a mum.....and that started to concern me.....well, I could say:
"Time to stop feeling like you're missing something and time to start gaining some creative power back" .....but it is not so black and white!

So, for whatever reason that you may identify with not being a mum, I'd just like to congratulate you and welcome you aboard, and just because you are 'you' makes you special. You deserve to feel good about yourself (just in case you aren't feeling ok) so if you're not please feel free to leave comments and discuss your feelings and thoughts and maybe we can help each other on our journey.
