Sometimes you have small moments that lead to bigger realisations. A compounding of nudges from the river that is love, slowly maturing your efforts and the direction of your arrows.
This essay was a humble reminder to pay greater attention, to increase certain capacities, to work with a sharp sword not a blunt blade, to cut through the noise, not add to it.
There are many reasons to be rageful right now. Many opportunities to feed the divide. I have known this energy intimately, it has been the fuel for great change in my life, and, I feel a refinement growing inside of me. A realisation that insanity is indeed doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
When I allow the compassion of my inner mother to sit alongside the torch-bearing maiden, I find an internal harmony that creates fertile soil for external connection.
Men, I love you.
I do not hate you.
I am sorry if my attempts to invite you in only shut you further out.
Here’s to turning the tides knowing that ultimately our ships are heading towards the same direction.
And that direction is Love.
Is Union.
We need each other,
and that I know,
deep in my heart of hearts,
to be true.
Thank you to the most incredible men in my life,
you know who you are.
♥️
