Even though Jack Kennedy and I were about the same age and lived in the same neighborhood and attended the same elementary school, our paths seldom crossed during the years he lived in Brookline. I’m sure that in time, I would have gotten to know him better if he hadn’t moved away.

The thing that’s different about ‘Girls’ and ‘Sex and the City’ isn’t just that we live in Brooklyn; it’s that these girls aren’t trying to find their major career paths or life partners. They’re just literally trying to get through the week and pay the rent. It’s a really different time of life.

Ojibwe prophecy speaks of a time during the seventh fire when our people will have a choice between two paths. The first path is well-worn and scorched. The second path is new and green. It is our choice as communities and as individuals how we will proceed.

All our paths are different.
