There is very little more attractive, fantastic, and satisfying than being around ladies that have something awaken within them - a journey, a calling, an adventure. I have been pretty lucky to spend a lot of time with powerful women - even raised by two who I would do anything for - women who have their own dreams notwithstanding all of the crazy things they are fed psychologically by our society, bloom anyways. They're completely unique in a world that's trying it's best to coach them to be like everybody else. How amazing is that? Above everything else, women act as moment by moment integrity checkers for men, oracles even, and if you can surround yourself with a group of powerful ladies, you'll grow incredibly, have your head lovingly cut off when you are not being the best man you really could be, and you may experience life itself and its gigantic array of experiences. Like the ocean they change and shift by the second, intense feelings and thoughts swarm...let that help you find your solidity. They will test you with their darkest moods and feelings - only to have them feel that you're immovable, the mountain, always to be there irrespective of what and firm in your purpose. These are gifts, not hinderances. These guiding relationships create you, but if you deflate - they're going to destroy you. Seek them out - don't be at all intimidated women can move mountains. They are to seriously be respected.
The dynamics of my life in moving with feminine energy has changed just about 180 degrees for lots of reasons. But oh how I have shifted within. Throughout the course of my life, I highly identified with feminine energy because I had two very strong and dynamic women in my life - my sister and my mother - who are very driven and accomplished in what they do. I even had a female dog who was my best friend when I was little and inclined to hit it off with women better than I did with men. I took the best from my dad also, equally as driven, thoughtful, inventive and motivated and became a product of my environment and nurturing.
As I went through the turmoil of my younger years, I was "all that changes and shifts. " My moods, my perspectives, my feelings, and thoughts...I have described it many times...were like a tornado within me that declined to cease. Even if it did stop temporarily, back up it would storm again. Combine that with lacking deep purpose after my baseball career finished and a big mess was made. So I crashed like the sea for a while...and eventually found my way to writing.
But recently this dynamic shifted supremely as the bubbling up of my purpose came to me and I started to read, understand, and practice what true masculine energy actually was. This has not only opened up my world, but has opened up the worlds of the guys who live around me. There's an idea that has entered into my mind that has stuck with me for months now, and it's the idea of the mountain. That solidity - identifying with what does not change in this world. The undoubtable steadiness of being absolutely grounded in your position, a mirror to life itself, empty and truly ready to express your deepest passions and purpose - which is the expression of love itself.
When a man ultimately begins to understand this way of looking at things I will tell you...mountains don't just move in front of him...he becomes the mountain. Whatever occurs around him swirls and yet he is absolutely calm, snug, and continues to be rooted in his deepest want. To find your purpose is a great deal more than just what you do for work - it's going to be a direct leader in your life and will color your relationships, your friendships, your family dynamics, and how you show up in the world. It sure did for me. As quickly as this hit - bloom - unfold - open - closing the chasm - joy - inner wisdom - integrity - determination through anything.
Women are similar to the sea. They shift, change, and adjust by the second. In just a second, a calm sea can change into a sequence of rogue waves. As a man, you are there in your small ship wondering how the hell you are going to climb up that wave before it crests. Women are life itself. They offer, literally, what it implies to be alive. Why do you actually think they call it Mother Nature? Everything that shifts around you is moving energy, a type of power that's uniquely feminine energy and can be accessed. But those waves for guys who do not and won't understand what it really means to be the captain of their ship can be rocked out of the their boat - I can not tell you how frequently I have been tossed out of my boat or even bailed before the wave hit. But give a man a purpose, and that wave begins to seem like fun. Additionally, that wave can evoke your most important purpose.
This is the part that has changed my life utterly.
Each day I sit right down and write, I am absolutely driven by a variety of energy that's certainely very different from anything that I have experienced before. I sit in my little chair outside on my porch...close my eyes, and breathe as deep into my stomach as I can. I find that density - that solidity - that love - that emptiness. There's this sort of energy that if you focus intently upon it deep enough, it's almost a low frequency lull...that is incredibly deep and dynamic. A wavelength that really has has existed far before all of us and one that will absolutelybe here forever after. I can feel it circulate through me often when I'm on the mat. Then, I open and observe the things that are going on around me or start to run through the days events - using all the amazing things that unpredictably changed - and get galvanized by all of that energy. That energy runs straight through my writing - and yet, all at the exact same time, I really am here, absolutely grounded in my place - living as if I was in fact already dead.
Fear, in my heart, disappears.
There I am, grounded, in my deepest purpose, completely and utterly electrified by the women around me and that feminine energy...creating, loving deeply, and open to all doubt. It's this dynamic, the one between the male and the female - and my using both - that has taught me more than anything else. This has opened me up, deeply changed my relationships, and helped me continue to discover parts of myself that I did not know existed. Floods of amazing people have showed up in my life and I can really see the whole thing morphing, only to grasp that it'll all change and pass...and that's perfectly O.K.
