Quick disclaimer I found this hiding on my computer it's actually from 2016 and all I did is edit it a bit.
Friday night and I sit at home alone. Why? For a time I thought I had become a recluse due to being socially inept but that is a lie.
If I like I can be charming and vivacious and engaging with almost anyone the question is more why would I put myself though that.
I do not drink. Not for any holy reason but because I do not enjoy the feel of alcohol in my blood stream. The slow poison that runs through the veins and seeps into the brain. I do not enjoy seeing people taking so little care of their inner workings as to poison their insides to excess and neither to I enjoy the way people behave.
Using intoxication as an excuse to "let their hair down" to "unwind" to have something to blame the next day for any excess they indulged, any silly thing they said or did. Why do they need to intoxicate themselves for that? Do they know their bodies so little? Is our apparent freedom such an illusion that we need alcohol etc to let ourselves go?
And here it is freedom the ultimate illusion. Brought up with the concept that people are free and having learned to value this freedom above all else we have already submitted to the brainwashing that was done to us as we freely take up the fetters of societies enslavement.
Freedom can only be achieved once we leave the ever turning wheel of life. Once we embrace the spark of eternity within and melt into it as one flowing back into the universe. Until that time we are bound and shackled to our needs, desires and dharma which get awfully twisted and opaque through the patriarchal capitalist society as we move further and further away from the truths of old.
Needs have become want for more, desire has become self indulgence and dharma as become what society deems best for us or what we deem best to meet our hunger for wants and indulgence.
Then there is the small talk. What the heck for?
Do I really care where a person is from, what they earn their living with and how they got here?
No! I do not. Because what would it tell me? Ones place of birth is not a choice and often times the same goes for professions. Why should those things define a person? Should they make a person? I do not think so. We were all born equal squealing and naked. What does it matter what languages the people spoke around me at my birth, what color their skin was or what gods they prayed to? It is true we are formed by the society we grew up in but to be enslaved by it is our choice. To never question the values, rules, dogmas, education, parental guidance, societal attitudes is our choice and if we do not break free from them in our quest to find ourselves we are but slaves to the collective that formed us.
Again freedom? How can we be free as we are shackled to societies ideals? And if we do not conform to the ideals of our upbringing we are rebels, just another societal box to classify people. It is a nifty system so even the ones that go against the system are still part of it. A smaller herd alongside the big one still working along to the same pointless ends.
Our professions now there is a subject surely we can tread on common ground here. But no. What makes us choose our way in life? Fist of there is the fact that as children we have no choice at all. We are educated where we are brought up to the standard of our respective surroundings and in line with the means of our initial families. Now whichever education we receive is then our ticket to where we go next. For many this will mean many doors have closed already. And what does education nurture? What does it teach? We learn the histories, the religions and science of men. Written by men, made up by man and explained by men. And even if it is by a women that women is so truly soaked and entwined into the patriarchate that it is but a male perspective yet again.
We learn to conquer, to accumulate, to own, to possess, to increase, to protect from outsiders, to be us and them, to analyse, to take apart and so we "choose" to go on. Which path do we set out on? Society paints the picture of the rich and beautiful, the rich and successful, the artistic and free, the pious and well loved, the leaders to glory, the finders of knowledge. Our heads filled with parental and societies ideals we are brainwashed over and over. How much of the choices we make have ever been our own? Our own? What does that even mean?
Does the farmer become a farmer because he/she loves to plow the field or because it is the family business, because of parental influence, because there wasn't much to choose for someone that got more bran then brain? Does the accountant become an accountant because she/she loves the numbers or because the profession promises great revenue to fuel ones acquisitions, to be rich if not famous.
So we make small talk still about those banal subjects that mean absolutely nothing and still many define themselves this way and/or define others this way. Where are you from = pigeonhole, what do you do = pigeonhole, how did you come here = pigeonhole, What do you belief = pigeonhole. Small talk just creates more barriers and creates the preconceptions that do not allow us to look underneath the exterior of the person. You are a banker so you can't be much fun, you are an artist so you probably do drugs or drink too much, you are a yogi so you must be vegetarian, you are pole dancer so you must be sexy, you are spiritual so you must be out of touch with the world, you are religious so you must be frantic.
Why would I go out and join their folly? Connecting to validate myself? What do I have in common with those people? Everyone drowning and choking on their lifes following blindly along imagining themselves to be alive! It's such a farce. We are utterly bound and unconnected and stuck in the utter illusion of freedom and connection. Society as is should be allowed to die, and we are even as a species on the best way to that!
It is true I am not fond of people in general. Humanity has become a cancerous growth on the earth. Through the fetters of patriarchy mixed with capitalism, societies have lost their balance with nature. Too long have men dominated and destroyed. Too long have we believed to be superior and mighty!
So who of the people I meet, even at events of so called "like minded" folk would actually share my despairs, opinions and hopes for the world as a whole? Who cares to really look behind the curtain and confront the meaninglessness of life? Who has actually noticed that they are bound to a chair and got rose colored glasses on their noses?
Who of them would share my daily cry as I raise my thoughts to the universe and fill it with my hope for the up-rise of women, the grand revolution. My every hart beat drums to the tune of the sisterhood of the earth. I feel and desperately hope that the time is near when women will rise as one, or maybe it's just my own delusion. When Kali (always my favorite conceptual being) awakens in all as one it will be terrifying and beautiful all in one as women take back the earth because they had enough of this mediocre stage play.
The world was never made for men. Societies were never meant to be governed by males. Daughters of the divine we are and as such we are creators, protectors and governors. Men like harping on about our physiological differences, sure you guys got the bran and we got the brain, so follow in line and step down! By natural right we were meant not to rule but to govern humanity so it may remain in balance with nature's many children. For that you need the chalice not the spear!
Women (that have escaped the patriarchal muck) will govern society for the greater good as a collective not for their own advancement. Women understand that we are all the same. There is no racial difference because we are all one, we are all human and as such just one of the many creations of mother earth. All beings carry the spark of the universe and as such we are one will, all and everything, always. As nature has given us speech and understanding it is time we learned to not just take advantage of these gifts but take up the responsibility that comes with it.
Any great gift is a two edged sword and must be used with caution. Under female administration I think societies will untangle, world views will shatter and gods will tumble.
Long have we lived under the patriarchal enslavement which was sold first to men and then to women as all the freedom we could ask for. Centuries upon centuries so that all written history, all divine texts all societal protocols have been formed under these constrains. The freedom of a slave!
Therefore the up-rise of the new world order the unfolding of a potential utopia is not done in a day, a decade or a century. Slowly we must untangle the knots that have tied themselves and even cut away that which will not give. A matriarchat is not a reversal of today's society by exchanging men for women. No it is the slow rediscovery of the natural way humanity ought to function by.
This will mean we have to questions everything and start anew.
The matriachat can not grow and become while man made gods still hold so many in their grip. So the gods of men must fall, must be incinerated.
If people require religion let them worship the faceless divine as the universal force that breathed us into life without dogma, without gender, without form but just the universal energy that binds us all together.
Societies ideals and values have to be reexamined in every direction including our basic foundation of domestic concepts of family and love. Our modern ideal of mother, father and child is well accepted but most likely unnatural as we see again and again. Of cause we can love the opposite sex but is not love (or what we perceive to be love) born from necessity of species survival? So should we truly try and cage ourselves into relationships that weren't meant to be? Should we in our overpopulated world even consider procreation? Should we enslave other creatures for our needs? So many questions need to be ask but maybe once religion, superiority, differences have been stripped away we can.
And maybe that will lead us to real lifes and as the shackles fall the freedom to truly grow into our own potentials as humans.
