One of the reasons why many of us women are still holding onto so much pain, is because for our whole lives, we have been surrounded by emotionally weak men... Men who themselves, are in just as much turmoil and pain, never having been allowed to connect to and experience their own emotional energy...
The uncontrollable flow of female chaos and unpredictability is frightening to those males, who are yet to feel and understand its raw power... A threat to their world of structure, control and perfectionism... Few are the men who embody the sheer strength, resilience and presence, to unflinchingly ride this wave of feminine energy... The beautiful tidal wave of love, pain and rapture
For so long as women
We have held in our tears
Our pain
Our anger
Our grief
Our resentment
Instead we experienced men seeking to suppress our outward expression of emotion through control, silencing, rejection, judgement, non acceptance, abandonment and denial
As women we have been refused our natural instinct to express emotions in the presence of masculine energy, unable to trust our men to protect the very essence of our being .... Unable to depend on our men to hold our world together if we let go... Even for a moment
Dear men...
If you want to heal the planet
Heal a woman
Hold space for her...
Your lovers
Your mothers
Your sisters
Your daughters
Your friends
Strangers
Ask to hear our stories
Hold us
Be strong for us
Allow us to be weak in your arms
Wipe our tears
Let us heal in your love
It is enough to listen to us without judgement
It is enough to hold us without fear
It is enough to acknowledge us and our journey
It is enough to see us through the lens of love
It is enough to be our rock in an ocean of chaos
Can you be present?
Can you be still?
Can you be dependable?
Can you be safe?
We need to know we can trust you
To be strong for us
Not just physically...
But emotionally
It is only then
In the safety of your presence
In the protection of your acceptance
And in the arms of your love
Will we finaly be able to allow ourselves
The luxury of surrender...
To feel
To release
And heal
Healing lifetimes of feminine pain
Healing our families
Healing humanity
Healing the planet
From this place of vulnerability
This haven of safety
This sanctuary of acceptance
You will know your divine masculine power
And we will know love
In our feminine surrender
You will no longer feel threatened by us
Or feel the need to control us
Deny us
Or fear us
And then you too, dear men
Will finally allow yourselves to feel
And heal...
Safe in the space of a woman
Who is healing through the power of your love
We thank you
