Woman

Where does love begin?....the woman. No one blames you....I do not blame you. The hunger for love is in us all. Can we understand how to understand? Yes we can see with hearts and eyes open wide for what is wise, and good, and true. I cannot blame her or anyone. I see the root is in the heart and there too is the soil of the soul in the deepest depth of the body where it mingles with the lowest but fertile substance of the earth. She is dark and beautiful, our primal mother that gives life to us all. And she is the dark, the hidden beautiful, and the fertile. And divine when the light of her lover finds her through the darkness. From that lowest form, it can sprout and spring forth, and break the soil above her form, and push herself above the world below until she is found there, above in the heights of the heavens.

Believe in her power - she is the mother of all living things. Old as the world, and before all religions - she was the desire in the soul and spirit of the darkest and furthest from heaven and the gods. But she knew the way too. How? The same desire that starts afresh in each new love always follows the path back to the source from whence it sprang. So where is the heart? It is in the body of the earth in our soul.
