How did this happen?

How did this happen?  How does a woman become invisible?  How does she go from childhood, to young womanhood to motherhood to all these changes and lose who she is.  How does shee lose the person inside her .... you know who I mean.... the 10 year old with the scraped knees, freckled nose who could pop a wheely like any of the boys?  Where did she go? 

Answer me that.....

Or better yet, how do we invite her back into our lives?  How do we bring her back to play?  She is there... you know she is ....sitting on the bike rack...waiting ..waiting for the invite.
   But the invitation never comes...why, you ask ...because we are scared.  Scared to invite her back, scared that she may not come back, scared that people will laugh and think us ridiculous if we allow her to be present and visible.

Yet in each and every woman, sits this girl who waits to be invited to return.  How did we lose her?
