who needs to be liberated?


Everyday I read that women need to be liberated. One question often comes to my mind: from what? What is it that a woman needs to be liberated from?
Equality is a definite yes-yes but at what cost?
In order to be equal to men why must a woman behave like a man, eat, dress act even abuse like a man? That’s selling the essence of a woman too short.
And does It not say that we are no good; we were born lesser so we shall become like you.
To fight against men women today are emulating them . Aggressive. Assertive. And in turn lose their femininity, grace, poise, beauty.
But who said that we need to fight against men in order to be equal? And who needs to be equal? To whom and why?
And what does a woman needs to be liberated from? Nothing at all. She just needs to be herself.
It is men who need to be liberated.
Liberated from the way they see women.
Liberated from the task of assigning roles for women.
Liberated from the way they put their own expectations on her of a demi-goddess.
Liberated from the way of pushing her into old patterns.
Liberated from their own desires of holding her in their clutches.

You def. have some anger for the men in this world! :)

Every good natured animal, I find, is equal to another whether they're male, female, pink, square, round or purple.
Men have their purpose, strenghts, weaknesses, beauty and ugliness, as do women, in every animal shape or form.

There is no reason to care about women anymore. I hear those things every day; and, I revile! Where have all the ladies gone? Women, are sub-par, and quite worthless.

With every comment, the sad and confused men and women quite plainly leave a drop of their blood from the wounds they have aquired from the opposite sex. Yet my worry is that they will give up on the possibility of receiving the life changing power of love one day that crosses their path. All the hurtful and nasty comments will not get them any closer to the most wonderful and fulfilling environment TRUE LOVE could cuddle them with someday.
The path to TRUE LOVE will be ladened with obstacles to teach you what you need to know about the "true painless love". Your gift of LOVE will cross paths with you soon again and please don’t be too bitter to lose it forever.Dont give up, work hard to BE READY when the gift of TRUE LOVE shows itself. It could be the quiet looking plain man or the quiet looking plain woman on the surface. We all have the natural gift of Love inside of us waiting to be experienced and give plenty of. What a powerful feeling to be a part of that. Deep down, that is what you want.
There are so many old people as we type and read, who are dying so lonely. It is so so sad.
The gift of a companions Love is so sadly being diluted because of all this worlds negativity.
It is such a shame.
The negativity is stealing our gifts as loving human beings.
Help by loving someone and receive your gift before you take your last seat in a chair or lay down on your bed for the last time.
It doesn’t matter if your partner passes away before you do because, You have received your gift of "Love".
You will carry this with you always.
It will be in your last thoughts and feelings as you too leave this beautiful place.
Trust me.......

Now THIS is truly something to behold. Thank you from the bottom of my besotted little heart. When I read this posting this afternoon (03.06.10), I found myself taking a deep sigh, thinking THIS IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT. Where has this person been all of my rather pathetic life? How have I NOT known him/her? sdinSeattle

jodha akbar - a true love story

Thirteen years back I had seen Allahabad Fort built by Emperor Akbar in 1583 A.D which stands erect even today except in those places probably the zenana which are very near to Yamuna where it has sunken in. This is the area which Akbar had designed especially for his wife Jodha. The windows of the side where this rajput princess often stayed face Yamuna, a river worshipped especially by people who worship Krishna. The architecture was in such a way that that the river used to flow inside the fort touching the walls of her palace so that she did not have to go out but could bathe right in the river staying in her palace named as Jodhabai Palace. When I saw it for the first time I was very young then… my mind full of romances waiting to be lived…it had brought a smile to my face… I thought that’s the way it is between every man and woman on this earth. Life teaches otherwise. To fall in love is easy…to be in love for a lifetime is more often a dream. It was a thinking out of box when A...

amrita - imroz a gospel of love

This is me and that is you and in the chasm is the dream wrote a woman once of her relationship with the man she loved and lived with. Some love stories reverberate like hymns in this universe. Love is a spiritual force in itself since it is a part of the inner world. In terms of events it happens between two people in a particular time and space but its fragrance spreads across time and space both. Amrita-imroz A love Story is a contemporary love legend which Penguin India brought to the world. It is best described not as a story of a woman or a man but a biography of a love story penned by Uma Trilok who was fortunate enough to spend some precious moments with the lovers just before Amrita left her body on October 31, 2005 at the age of 86. Being a Reiki and Pranik healer, the writer formed close ties with Amrita and Imroz and what came out is a book which is so soothing that it takes you to yourself. Love is a word which carries a halo around itself when used as a word. Ironically ...

age is beautiful

Youth is beautiful. And so is age. Dear Woman. I see women distraught over a few wrinkles, painfully hiding a few streaks of grey hair. Dyeing hair into a desirable color, making the belly taut, lifting the breasts and the face are smart ways of looking younger...it isn't wrong at all...but desperately clinging to what's passing can create much misery and carried on too far should raise a few questions : what is the motive - fooling others? And the next- am I fooling myself? I sometimes wonder who has given these foolish guidelines to beauty . Some maniac who who got up in the morning and dreamed that there shall be no noon and no sun-set?And found no beauty in the mellowness and the ripening. The crazy mind. Is the grey hair not beautiful? And what's wrong with a few wrinkles? Aging beautifully and gracefully is all about acceptance and not fighting against the wisdom of Nature. Physical degeneration is a natural proce ss which comes over the years and brings along with ...
