It’s about the women and children

women and childrenNote to self (and to men who care):

We live in a yet another new age. An age where more than ever, it is about the women and children – both outside and inside of yourself.

Love requires “Other”

Whatever lifestyle you chose to live, and however you chose to practice this, a life full of meaningful experiences, a life lived in love, entails putting yourself in service of that which is “other”. Love requires otherness, it requires overcoming of separation, it demands the integration of the paradox of “I” and “Other”, seemingly separate yet one at the same time. To live a life of love means to love that which is other, the unknown, inside and outside of yourself.

Time to catch up

Women are currently ahead in evolution. During the last century, they fought their way into male systems, into schools, politics, even the military. Through that, they have learned to activate their inner male, integrate left and right brain functioning in new ways (some more, some less successful). They have stepped up in the evolutionary development of mankind from barbarism to the great matriarchies, and from currently faltering patriarchies to this new age in which male and female inside and outside ourselves can thrive in harmony.

From Protohuman to Prototype

It is also an age in which we need to honor the child within us again, the child, who wants to explore and create wonder in this world. If we allow ourselves to discover awe anew in every moment, if we trust in our ability to create marvelous wonders again and again, we also create a new empathy and care for the children of the world who represent the future of mankind.

Remember to continuously discover both male and female inside of you, learn to love yourself for all that you are and can be, the known and unknown. And remember to live in beginner’s mind no matter what age, and that you affect generations to come in all you do.
