Geani - growing up

I just finished reading a book that everybody says is similar with Da Vinci's Code. It's called Emerald Game and is written by a Romanian writer Ioan Petru Culianu. It's not so similar with Da Vinci's Code, but I found really interesting thoughts about life, love, and understanding of the world and of God.

I will write further some passage about how world and people would be without love:

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
“Now I will prove you that from all seven, Venus has a crucial role to accomplish. You know that the divine Platon says abut human beings that we are plants with the roots in the sky and that in our heads - the place of the rational soul - there are the revolutions of the planets. We are truly little universes, and this has to be understood exactly how is said, because we are made exactly how the Big Universe is made.

Now imagine all this tiny intelligent universes, which have all the aptitudes, but not the ones of love and compassion. They could generate, but the process would be painful or boring. They could talk, but not to hold a conversation, because their talk wouldn't generate affection and wouldn't establish connections. They would have republics and rules, but harsh ones. They would be able to contemplate the sky and its Creator, but without any emotion. On long term, such beings without passions would disappear, as the leafs that, because they don’t receive enough light from the sun, never become green. Without the Goddess of Love the reality would be spectral, without color and without consistence. Like the Apostle said: “Because you are almost warm I will pour you in my mouth". In other words, the Apostle says that he despises the ones incapable of strong sentiments, because they will not have a future. To say it even better, I would say that without the Goddess the world would be indifferent, predictable and without any sparkle of life."
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

I really believe in these words. I often thought what my life would be like if I wouldn't have friends, parents and in the future a partner to share my love and children. It would be empty.

Anything I do and I will do in the future, all my work, all my passion have no sense if I will not have someone to share it with. And I know that my personal life will always be first in my decisions for career or anything else.

Of course I want personal development and learning but I am sure that Love and Family are for sure 2 of my values. There is no easiest way to make an impact in society than trough your friends, your family, your child. Especially for a women, a mother how I will be, I cannot imagine a bigger responsibility and bigger joy than to grow up children that are happy, children that know what they want, have the capacity to get what is their dream, and are able to influence positively the others. Can you imagine how the world would look like if all the mothers in the world would have such thoughts in mind? I think the world would be so muuuch better.

Creation is a miracle, but for me is also a miracle to help a child to grow up, and to evolve in a beautiful human being. Someone would say that the impact in society in a bigger way can be achieved better trough your job. I agree, it's possible, and I want to achieve that also, but I don't know how yet.

What I know now for sure is that the way described above by me is a sure one...:):) Somebody will think is a girlish way of thinking, or an old one – thing that they wouldn’t associate with the women of steel :):) . I cannot say if the affirmation is true or not, if it’s old, or if it’s girlish but I have the courage to tell that no matter how it would be, all written above represent me and my thoughts. Being a woman doesn’t mean, in my opinion being equal to men…but this is another discussion…

I still have to grow up (as the title says :)) to discover the other ways to impact the society in a positive way...

geanni, you know what, i realized why I felt since the first LCP meeting in Iasi why I would like to keep in touch with you - because we hold on to the same values..
I am still struggling with defining what is 100% important for me.., but I somehow agree with your thoughts deep inside.

stay yourself,
yours

"O woman, you are not merely the
handiwork of God, but also of men;
You are one half woman and one
half dream."
Rabindranath Tagore

Steel and spirit, geani :)
