I would just like to add something to the above: to include "masculine" in this statement, dear SMC, is rather bigoted. Just because someone is female, or has female energies, does not guarantee kindness, enlightened attitudes, or tolerance. Both female (negative) and male (positive) energies are needed for balance.
I don't mean to willfully misunderstand. I am aware of our cultural history and the "patriarchy." But I don't think it's helpful to attack men or male energy. In my opinion we need healing and balancing, not revenge or blame. That is not to say I don't understand suffering or wounds.
Actually, your post made me laugh. If we were sitting in your kitchen having a cup of tea together, we might both be laughing at the absurdity of the world, though both quite aware of the suffering as well.
Ironically I felt that as a man I had 'no right' to point this bit out, thanks for speaking my mind, Diana.
That being said, I did feel it was more peaceable to simply give space, but it also feels proper to express gratitude when I feel one of my own thoughts is reflected in another.
