The Mouldy Scent of Static Developments – What is a Newspaper Mama?

August 30, 2016 by femalereligion

“What is a news paper?” is Lux’ questions as a 5-year-old. “It’s the large papers you can buy at the Späti and kiosks. No….I would not try to swipe a newspaper, my love – the ink smudges as easy as the news is vaporizing in people’s mind. When you read a paper your fingertips will get an intellectual makeover, covered with a hint of black moulded ink. Unlike its news, which does not seem to have that kind of impact on […]

Say Never – Adjusting My Vocabulary For Life, Love And Career

June 23, 2014 by femalereligion

The more convinced my NO is leaving my mouth, the more it is bound to happen. And it does not even take long before I embrace it with all my heart without any complaint or even urge of recollection. NO is a word I’d better not use in my vocabulary anymore, when it comes to matters of life, love and career. It’s completely useless, since I have to justify myself (and I do not want to). NEVER – however – can be taken […]

Craving For Change Again: Am I Adventurous Or Plain Stupid?

January 30, 2014 by femalereligion

When a newbee career woman interviewed me and asked me who my female role model was and what career goals I set in life, I was baffled! “I did not have one when I was your age – 20ish – dear!” She looked at me shattered, as if she was wondering how on earth I could have survived and live my life as I am doing today. No. Not everything runs smoothly. Do not believe the currated ‘me’. Every single time […]

Vintage Selfies Must Have Looked Like This – I Like

February 21, 2012 by femalereligion

If there was Facebook then, selecting a Facebook pic must have looked a bit like this. Try outs, over and over. All is visible and real. What you see is what you get. The Selfie. Quite the opposite from the selfies nowadays, which I often find stunningly unreal. Overdone personal branding which leads to a disruptive connection between virtual and real life. What is it exactly you want to tell? Taking pics today is about tagging with scattered objectives. This […]

Me As A Female Action Hero 3.0 – Mild On The Outside, Danger Within

August 29, 2011 by femalereligion

Sure. I did know I get angry, very angry. Nasty, when it is that time of the month. (It is a cliché but it is simply applicable). I easily can bites peoples head off. Hypothetically that is. But since my kid – it started during my pregnancy – these flashes of utter invincibility evolved in some bizarre dreams and fantasies when I even have the faintest idea someone would want to hurt my cub. In my head, images of severe […]

Finally I Am A ‘Rabenmutter’ – Combining My Kid With A Career

August 16, 2011 by femalereligion

Not sure when I first learned about the word ‘Rabenmutter’. And although it is not a very friendly nickname, I immediately liked it! Probably it’s because it got a certain ring to it, and I don’t know of any other language that has a word like this. ‘Deadbeat mum’ comes close according to Wikipedia, but it does not hold this illustrative link to nature like ‘Rabenmutter’. I am a ‘Rabenmutter’ now. Like I said, nice ring for a foreigner with […]

And Then You Die – Props To Your Life

August 14, 2011 by femalereligion

Fascinating. It feels like I’m invading your privacy when I roam though your pictures of exotic travels, where you pose alone. I could not get myself to read your letters, although I was curious about you. You leave a fine collection of artifacts to your life. Simply an attractive collage of private valuables. You spend your life, collecting these little memories of life: photographs, jewelry, fashionable bags, letters, souvenirs and hats. These little things tell a story about you. All […]
