It has been about a month since my last Tori Amos post. More importantly, I need a mental health break and regular readers here know that means I need to hear Tori Amos' music!
All of the turmoil lately (see previous post) regarding victimizing endometriosis patients has me very upset!
Tori Amos herself has endometriosis.
When I get upset, I reach for Tori Amos' music! It heals me.
In honor of the winter season we are in, I went searching for a video clip of Tori Amos singing the song "Winter".
Boy, did I find a great one!! This song is 17 years old. You can find it on the Little Earthquakes CD. It's a soothing song and a real treasure for calming down!
-- Tori Amos (musician, singer, songwriter, pianist)

On a much more serious note, Tori is a strong advocate for women. Her work with RAINN: The nation's largest anti-sexual assault organization (One of “America’s 100 Best Charities" — Worth magazine) helps many women!
Here are some statistics about sexual assault...

I thought that following a mental health break of Tori's music & lyrics about winter and a much more serious link to the RAINN organization that I would wrap up today's post with a quote.
Here is the Foundation for a Better Life's Quote of the Day
“The road of life twists and turns and no two directions are ever the same. Yet our lessons come from the journey, not the destination.”
—Don Williams, Jr. (b. 1968); novelist and poet
Through the twists and turns of your life, try to find time to relax.
At the same time, be aware that there are helpful organizations like RAINN in times of crisis.
If you have been sexually assaulted or abused, seek help!!!
Let's appreciate Tori's gorgeous music AND appreciate her advocacy on behalf of sexually assaulted women.
