Here is what I have learned about life. When women are in trouble and need help, or have been seriously damaged, they cannot get justice for that. They cannot go to the courts (as we all know), they cannot get justice from the government (as we all know), they cannot get justice from the church (as we all know) and they cannot get justice from “God” (as we all know). Oh, and by the way, they cannot get justice from their society, family, and friends neither (as we all know).

The only thing women have been able to hope for at all as a sweet little pat on the head saying there, there now, be nice and just go away. Women are expected to accept their losses, put a forgiving hat on, smile, and go forward seriously damaged and therefore operating at a severe disadvantage. Any bits of bandaid help that they do get is the minimum that all of these entities mentioned above can get away with offering, and women are expected to gush relentless gratitude for that for fear of losing even that little bit of “mercy”.

In the process, that women is usually severely slandered and ostracized by all of these lovely entities mentioned above while those who did the damage carouse around with smug grins on their faces, further adding insult to injury.

I know that this doesn’t just happen to women but I know that women need the floor here, for a change, just for themselves, because I truly believe that to heal women is to heal life.

We all know, that people who enjoy doing damage to others love to force those they damage to “alchemize” their bitterness, push it down where it causes all kinds of diseases and self-hating symptoms. Wow, you know, it almost makes me wish that I had chosen to be one of these nasty, needy, selfish, people, because it must be quite a squirt for them to be able to get that much reward for doing damage to others for the simple thrill of it.

What I really wish though, is that the other folks on the planet would stop protecting, supporting, and richly rewarding these nasty squirt machines. They do so by such intelligent acts as helping to silence those who are damaged, further increasing the damage by helping these nasty squirt machines to slander and ostracize those they hurt, and by demanding that the damaged adopt a saintly forgiving and “accepting” attitude and stop demanding or needing any kind of recompense, including the freedom to simply tell the truth.

Truth is our only way out. Truth is the only thing that stops and disempowers evil and abuse. Truth is the only thing that truly clears the way for healing. Truth is the only thing that nurtures and honors that healing and the person doing the healing. Truth is the only thing that will take us out of the darkness trembling in fear of the monsters under the bed and over our heads. Truth is the only thing that shrinks those monsters down to size and restores sanity to the human mind. Truth is the only thing that takes us from mere survival and tiptoeing self-defense, to life, real, creative, expansive, and joyous life.

The only thing negative about truth is the enormous and crushing resistance to it, and, let me remind, in case it has been forgotten, that that resistance is as enormous and crushing as it is because it knows the power of truth. Remember, what the monsters fear most is for the human eye and the human mind to see them for what they are – small pathetic beings who hide in the darkness so that they may seem more powerful than they are.

Do not fear your anger. Be more afraid of being afraid of your anger. Your anger is the voice that pushes that resistance off of you. It is sharp and tells the truth and moves mountains and mountains of bullshit out of the way. Being afraid of that anger causes you to shrink inside causing the monster to smile and loom more overwhelmingly between you and the sky. It also causes that anger to fester and become disease, maybe eventually turning you into the monster. Don’t be afraid of your anger.

Tell the truth as best as you can muster even if it makes the world around you uncomfortable because truly you are only making the monsters uncomfortable. Keep doing it, because every person who tells the truth makes it easier for the next person who is afraid, to also tell the truth. Trust in that.

For those who are frightened when people tell the truth, please trust that truth is sanity and fear is insanity. Try with all your might to keep from silencing those who are telling the truth, because those truth tellers are moving monsters out of our way.
