I do believe something positive in the morning can change your day.  Today I told myself to take a deep breath and that everything was going to be ok, Today had a perfect ending to a perfect day

5. Recently a writer by the name of Amy Glass ruffled feathers with a post she wrote saying she looks down on young women with husbands and kids and she's not sorry.

What say you? Do you think men and women are equal in the 21st century? Why or why not?
I think men and women are treated more fairly than in previous decades, however
if women can stay at home and not work outside the home, then I am all in favor.
