You told us to be strong, then never allowed us to be soft. You told us to be sexual, virginal, pure, and full-time working mothers while we're at it. You bade us do it - while walking on our hands... Only love saw us through. We asked you to love and protect us, and to understand, while at the same time blaming you for our enemy's tactics. But we understand now. We see why it has all gone so very very wrong. You see, THEY stole you from us. THEY drove you into the military where they broke you and rebuilt you, to serve without asking why. When the WHY is the very beating of your blood. THEY drove you into businesses where your only product became a bottom line, an insignificant figure, then told you the real measure of your happiness is in what you can buy. So buy you did. Increment by increment THEY stole your reason, spoon feeding you instead violence as your only means of solution. At the same time stealing your primordial song. In courtrooms, boardrooms, and meeting rooms across the the world THEY turned you into jesters, fighting for made-up causes, based on made up science and rhetoric. THEY turned you into puppets, distorting your learning into catch phrases and cliches misused and misaligned. THEY sold you ideas of acceptance based on an industry of lies - so they could distort your bodies with steroids and weight loss drugs - to support a predatory industry worth trillions. Then made your captors your idols, and then showed you how to worship them. Scolding you whenever you got it wrong. THEY spoon fed you porn, and hate, and apathy, and never ending violence. Then blamed you and imprisoned you when you acted out that intentionally administered rage. THEY KILLED YOUR SONS WITH GUNS - BY MAKING GUNS THEIR FAVORITE IDOL. It is psychological warfare, and THEY have been waging it upon you since before you were born. We women have also paid the price. But know this now, love will see you through. Love will see us all through. For the veil is lifting, and though we're all collectively shaking our heads, wondering how it got so far askew, We instinctively know that the way back is shorter than we can imagine. Because it is our basic nature WE are returning to - instinctual drift will do most of the work. Back home. That's where we're all headed. Collectively. Back to a time and place where we don't have to be afraid, where what we say and do matters, where our lives are meant for creative pursuits and love. Hold fast, my brothers, hold fast. Love is breathing life back into us all. X 03/06/2024 © Raena Exe 2024

Your stories always make me think. Your daily running commentary is so interesting, I look forward to reading everything you post. I don’t always aways agree with what you say as I am probably more conservative/liberterian than you but I so greatly respect your views and thoughts. I hurt so hush that you have had such a hard life as you are such a very special young lady. So bright and so darn stunning. I would live to fly out to meet you and just sit and chat with you over dinner sometime. I am an old retired science teacher and coach. But you are imply wonderful and I wish you the best.
