How is man to recognize his full self, his full power through the
eye’s of an incomplete woman? The woman who has been stripped of Goddess
recognition and diminished to a big ass and full breast for physical
comfort only. The woman who has been silenced so she may forget her
spiritual essence because her words stir too much thought outside of the
pleasure space. The woman who has been diminished to covering all that
rots inside of her with weaves and red bottom shoes.
I am sure the men, who restructured our societies from cultures that
honored woman, had no idea of the outcome. They had no idea that
eventually, even men would render themselves empty and longing for
meaning, depth and connection.
There is a deep sadness when I witness a man that can’t recognize the
emptiness he feels when he objectifies himself as a bank and truly
believes he can buy love with things and status. It is painful to
witness the betrayal when a woman takes him up on that offer.
He doesn’t recognize that the [creation] of a half woman has
contributed to his repressed anger and frustration of feeling he is not
enough. He then may love no woman or keep many half women as his prize.
He doesn’t recognize that it’s his submersion in the imbalanced
warrior culture, where violence is the means of getting respect and
power, as the reason he can break the face of the woman who bore him 4
four children.
When woman is lost, so is man. The truth is, woman is the window to a man’s heart and a man’s heart is the gateway to his soul.
Power and control will NEVER out weigh love.
May we all find our way.
