My first memories of religion were being taken to Episcopal church. My father was Catholic but my mother I believe was Episcopal. So I sort of veered off into the watered-down version of Catholicism.
Superstition is to religion what astrology is to astronomy the mad daughter of a wise mother. These daughters have too long dominated the earth.
I'm working on my relationship with my mother and father but my upbringing has been very destructive.
I wish I had a great relationship with my mother.
I was raised by a single mother and I've been in a 10-year relationship with my girlfriend. My whole life I've been surrounded by women.
First of all returning from motherhood I was looking for something lighter and I wasn't as much attracted to Kate as I was to the relationship between the two people.
Even though I'm not with their mother it's important for my kids to see adults in a committed and happy relationship. They need to see a strong relationship. You don't have to settle.
The mother-daughter relationship is the most complex.
My relationship with Wilhelm and Jacob Grimm reaches far back into my childhood. I grew up with Grimm's fairy tales. I even saw a theater production of 'Tom Thumb' during Advent at the State Theater in Danzig which my mother took me to see.

That's an epitomizing idea getting called 'Nothing' for your whole high school experience.
