Today I sat next to a lady on the bus having a conversation with her fertility specialists office. The feeling of wanting to turn a bit in my seat and look at her was overwhelming but I resisted the urge to do so. I felt bad even wanting to turn to look at her and examine her 30 - something face - a face not unlike my own. Most women of child-bearing age spend the majority of those years finding ways to NOT bear children. We scheme and stuff ourselves full of hormones with little thought to the future. Or maybe it is the future that keeps us cramming the hormones into our fertile bodies, tricking our ovaries month after month. Pretty soon the months turn into years and before we know it the damage is done. When my time comes, I pray that if the gods don't see fit to forgive my sins - I'm in a position to pay.
