The Men in My Life
Seems like all the important men in my life are going through challenging times, times potent with potential for growth, and of course, conflicts, if not pain. Everything seems to be rising to the surface for them more intensely than before, my father, my brother, Rob, my good friends C and S. Some coping better than others, and some are in real pain. (The only one doing spectacular seems to be the gay man. Hmm....)
They all have a piece of my heart though, and they all seem like they could use some love, love for themselves.
Sometimes I really feel so empathetic towards men in general. Aside from the perks they get from being males in patriarchal cultures, men today are facing such daunting tasks of finding and being with their own hearts, and in this department they have received so little support and training or guidance. My heart just pulsates as I watch them go through challenging stages, because I really do know how painful it can be, especially when the word pain is not allowed in your dictionary.
Ai-ya-ya.
I am so proud of Rob though. He really indeed is working hard to create something different for himself. Men have such a different way of dealing with things sometimes, especially the mentality that you have go at it alone, no matter the cost. My heart just aches for those who suffer in isolation, especially those who can't own up to their own suffering. It's a never ending loop, and hard for loved ones to watch.
May God bless them. May Goddess bless them. May love come in. May life breeze in.
May you receive the support and loving that's needed for you to feel all of who you are, be all of who you are, and allow who you are to be enough, for you, my darling loved ones. The important men in my life.
May you take a deep breath and inhale, for the first time really, relief. Relief in knowing that you are good enough. You are just fine, and that you feel the power of life, of change, of surrendering.
May you take a deep breathe and inhale, for the first time truly, relief, because as strong as you are, as strong as you have been for yourself and others, you have not been relieved for so long. You have not felt relieved in so long, just because, especially because you have never been taught, let alone allowed to feel that you can feel free, too.
May you be free. Free from yourself, and sink into, for the first time really, yourself.
Peace.
