i was painting my kitchen this morning when i had a personal ah-ha! it seemed to fit this thread.

it all started earlier this week when i found myself excitedly sharing with my brother (who'd helped with the wall preparation) my plans for the curtains i was going to hang. mid-way through my visualization with him, i realized, and acknowledged vocally to him, that he couldn't possibly care what i did with the curtains in my kitchen! i've been wondering what got into me ever since, and while revisiting the moment this morning, something emerged with joy that i just have to share here.

i realized that at this time period in human consciousness every human here (in one form or another) is working towards the fullness and balanced integration of the masculine/feminine in what was initially an off-balanced to the masculine, patriarchal society. the ways to the manifestation of that goal are broad and many--a very holistic approach--and instead of pointing fingers at whose got the "right or wrong" way of bringing in the balance, it's more important to celebrate the enormous diversity and accept with joy the unique, one-of-a-kind light each being type brings to the mix.

every human here is a soul manifested with a purpose for the evolution of consciousness.

thus, homosexual men are holding their identities as intellectual males (a strength) while outwardly exploring their more feminine (emotional--to name one) attributes. lesbians and feminists are seeking to strengthen the feminine and understand and empathize more fully with men by tasting of masculine approaches and traits.

look at the various forms of relationship and how each one adds a specific ingredient to the way humanity communicates with each other. women have a unique way of communicating with women, and men bond with men in a special way. women and men who are just close friends enjoy an additional form of communication. and spouses and living partners and children all add their unique ingredient to the communication aspect that helps us express what it's like to be human.

transsexuals bring a special consciousness and awareness to the mix, as well as cross dressers.

heterosexuals contribute in many and varied ways. i have a husband confident enough in his masculinity to openly enjoy shopping for clothes, curtains and items to decorate a house with. he's been tantamount in helping me embrace that feminine aspect of myself.

anyway, just had to get some of it down while the thoughts and images were fresh.

i guess what i'm saying here is that maybe another way of serving this ascension process is simply to open myself to enjoyment of the many ways of being. at least, that's what resonates with me--and i'm sticking to it. grin. please don't apologize to me for being you--ever. you're always bearing me a loving gift--let the packages be many and varied! that's my joy!

with love,
