Down on the Farm

      I'm eagerly awaiting a reply from the Farm Midwives regarding my stay with them next year. I will be attending a weeks long workshop for Midwifery Assistance. Just to be in the presents of Ina May Gaskin and her colleagues is going to be a life changing experience for me. To have an opportunity like this is just mind blowing to me. It just seems like the most fabulous way to begin my studies into midwifery. 
   
    I've been interested for quite some time , tho in the past have lacked the confidence to lay claim to my desire to become a midwife. Partly due to my fear of failure. I think we all carry that to some extent. There is so much to learn , and I no longer feel the pressure of under achievement lingering like a rain cloud over my life. I must accept that it may take me longer and will be more difficult due to my responsibility to my family. However long it takes , I will continue to share the common goal of all womans health professionals and that is whats most important.
