There is nothing more lovely, amazing, and inspiring than being around ladies that have something awaken within them - a journey, a calling, an adventure. I have been pretty fortunate to expend a great deal of time with robust women - even raised by 2 who I would do just about anything for - women who have their own dreams notwithstanding all of the crazy things they are fed psychologically by our society, bloom anyhow. They are entirely unique in a world that's training them to be like everyone else. How incredible is that? Above all, women act as moment by moment integrity checkers for men, oracles even, and if you can surround yourself with a group of powerful girls, you may grow unbelievably, have your head lovingly cut off when you aren't being the best man you really could be, and you will experience life itself and its gigantic variety 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 you are immovable, the mountain, inevitably going to be there no matter what and firm in your purpose. These are gifts, not hinderances. These relationships create you, but if you really deflate - they'll destroy you. Seek them out - don't be intimidated, women can move mountains. They are to seriously be cherished.
The dynamics of my life in moving with feminine energy has changed just about 180 degrees for many reasons. But oh how I have shifted deep inside. Across the course of my life, I highly identified with female energy because I had two amazing and extremely strong and dynamic women in my life - my sister and my mom - who are deeply driven and proficient in what they do. I even had a female dog who was my best friend when I was little and inclined to get along with women better than I did with men. I took the best from my dad also, equally as driven, thoughtful, inventive and persistent and changed into a product of my environment and nurturing.
As I went through the deep chaos 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 inside me that refused to cease. Even when it did stop momentarily, back up it would storm again. Combine that with lacking deep purpose after my baseball career stopped and an enormous mess was made. So I crashed like the raging ocean for a while...and ultimately found my way to writing.
But lately 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 essentially was. This has not just only opened up my world, but has opened up the worlds of the men 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 concept of the mountain. That solidity - identifying with what doesn't change in this world. The undoubtable stability of being completely grounded in your position, a mirror to life itself, empty and prepared to express your deepest passions and purpose - which is the expression of love itself.
When a man finally begins to understand this idea, I am able to tell you...mountains don't just move in front of him...he becomes the mountain. Whatever might happen around him swirls and yet he is absolutely calm, planted, and remains rooted in his deepest desire. To find your purpose is far more than just what you do for work - it should be a direct leader in your life and will color your existing relationships your friendships, your family dynamics, and how you show up in the world. It absolutely did for me. As soon as this hit - bloom - unfold - open - closing the chasm - joy - honesty - integrity - determination through anything.
Women are like the flowing ocean. They shift, change, and adjust by the second. In just a moment, a peaceful beautiful ocean can change into a series of rogue waves. As a man, you are there in your small boat wondering how on earth you're 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 really think they call it Mother Nature? Everything that shifts around you is moving energy, a type of energy that's uniquely feminine energy and can be accessed. But those waves for men that do not understand what it really means to be the captain of their ship can be rocked straight out of their boat - I can't tell you how often I have been tossed out of my boat or bailed before the wave hit. But give a open man a purpose, and that wave actually starts to seem like fun. Also, that wave can evoke your most significant purpose.
This is the part that's changed my life fully.
Every single day I sit comfortable down and write, I am absolutely driven by a variety of energy that's 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 down into my stomach as I can. I find that density - that solidity - that love - that emptiness. There's this kind of energy that if you focus on it deep enough, it's almost a low frequency lull...that is exceptionally deep and powerful. A wavelength which has existed far before everyone and one that will undoubtedly be here forever after. I will feel it circulate through me sometimes when I am 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 of the things that unpredictably changed - and get impressed by all of that energy. That energy runs straight through my writing - and yet, all at the same time, I'm here, fully 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, totally and utterly impressed by the women around me and that feminine energy...creating, loving deeply, and open to all delicious uncertainty. It's this dynamic, the one between the male and the female - and my utilizing both - which has taught me more than anything else. This has opened me up, changed my friendships and helped me continue to discover parts of myself that I didn't know existed. Floods of great people have showed up in my life and I can really see the entire thing morphing, only to know that it will all change and pass...and that's wonderfully okay.
