A wonderful reflection on motherhood, the pressures women face to become one, and how to reconcile society's expectations with our desire not to participate in motherhood.

I especially loved the concept of a woman's existence as an end in itself, instead of a vessel through which other lives come through. A woman existing has intrinsic value, motherhood is just a choice that can be made by those who desire it.
