Thought-Provoking Thursday

John calls me a news junky. I love browsing through the daily news, especially feature articles. Each week at least a couple articles resonate with me.

This week two very different articles stuck with me. In case you missed NPR and the New York Times, here you go. Let me know what you think!


A heartbreaking and thought-provoking portrait of the perspective of a sex worker.

I love stories of creative, brilliant business start-ups.

  1. Ironically, I read the sex worker article in the NYT paper this weekend. Certainly a mind baffling life to lead! And she is so protective of her lifestyle. I want NYT to interview her kids next.

  2. I would love further information, too. I felt like this article was a good intro to what could be a great series. If you are looking for a good book, read Rosa Lee, be Leon Dash. It is a good look into a similar situation.

  4. A series would be fitting indeed! I thought you might get a kick out of this article. Although it's politics, it's highlights of Romney's awkward social encounters.
