Shhhh

I did everything society said to be happy. I got the degrees: BA, a Montessori degree, and an MA. I married the “right” men who could “give me respect and boost my confidence.” First an attorney. Had one daughter. The marriage ended after seven years because of his affairs. Eight years later, my second husband was a cardiologist from Virginia. We had a bi-coastal, whirlwind coke-induced love affair for eighteen months. The marriage lasted six months. I did things I thought might help society. I sent women to London for abortions before Roe v. Wade. I was active in the peace movement to stop the Vietnam War. I started NORML (the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws) with my first husband. I had the right jobs: I wrote and produced for PBS. I won numerous awards. I wrote screenplays to shine the light on inequities. None of this alleviated my pain, shame, and suffering from the childhood beatings and sexual abuse that led to my self-abuse. My healing journey began with Shhhh!

Shhhh!!! for ages 0-7 years is a colorful book encouraging respect for others. Skills Learned are rhythm, rhyme, repetition, map.

The stories in here are mostly true. Ive had so many encounters in my life as a member of an airport ground crew. Im not sure if I can continue cranking out more volumes until all the stories I have (those I can recall anyway) have been written out. Im not expecting much from this book, though I do hope one or two chapters will open the eyes of married men and women to the fact that they should not take their marriages for granted and to keep the right kind of company. No malice is intended toward anybody. Books such as Coffee, Tea or Me? or the BBC series Come Fly with Me dont paint a complete picture about the lives of those working in airline industry. Not all of us were snared by honey traps and bribes. Airline staff meets all sorts of people, and temptations abound. Ultimately, it all depends on the person. I had a good thirty-three years of lessons working at the airport. I cherish and hold dear the experiences Ive gathered, the people Ive met, and the friends Ive made. I thank my friends and the passengers who encouraged me to pen this book.
