New Balance

Turns out the Mayans were right about their world ending.

I wasn't the only one who noticed, was I?   For me the significance was too obvious to deny. On 12/22/12, the day after the Mayan calendar failed to predict the end of the world, the women of India, millions and millions of them, realized that they didn't have to be raped. The machismo and bravado of men on a joy ride, met the mothers and daughters. And they are clearly saying, “women have power and a voice here, too”. 

Was it a coincidence that the NRA broke it's silence on that day and among all the possible explanations and solutions to the murder of children in a classroom, access to stacked clips goes unmentioned, but the grand supporters of liberty suggest we need to make lists of people and have the government track them. The ignorance was deafening, and the mothers across the country said, "women have power and a voice here, too”. 

The balance of power has tipped. The voice of women got a little bit louder and a few more men starting listening respectfully to the women in their lives. There is now more female energy in this world than male. It isn't a sudden lighting of the darkness, but a shifting of the sands. This call to reason has taken centuries. The times when men could claim superiority and never admit an error are passing away. 

The Mayan blood sacrifice, the slaughter of innocence for mythology, that had to be a man's idea. As their calendar fades, so does the arrogance of men. Close your eyes and feel it. On that day the female energy of the planet nudged past the male energy in both size and stature. I embrace a future were the steady determined voices of great women are there to help guide us all.
