There is nothing more lovely, wonderful, and inspiring than being around ladies who have something awaken deep inside them - a trip, a calling, an adventure. I've been pretty supremely lucky to have spent a lot of time with powerful women - even raised by 2 who I would do anything for - women who've got their own dreams regardless of all the things they are fed psychologically by our society, battle anyways. They are entirely unique in a world that's trying it's best to training them to be like everyone else. How awesome is that? Above everything else, women act as moment by moment integrity checkers for men, oracles even, and if you can surround yourself with a grouping of powerful women, you will grow unbelievably, have your head lovingly cut off when you are surely not being the best man you could be, and you may experience life itself and its vast variety of experiences. Like the sea they change and shift by the second, emotions and thoughts swarm...let that help you find your solidity. They are going to test you with their darkest moods and feelings - only to have them feel you are immovable, the mountain, inevitably going to be there regardless of what and firm in your purpose. These are gifts, not hinderances. These guiding relationships create you, but if you really deflate - they will destroy you. Seek them out - don't be intimidated, women can move mountains. They are to seriously be respected.
The dynamics of my life in moving with female energy has changed almost 180 degrees for lots of reasons. But oh how I have shifted inside. Across the course of my life, I highly identified with strong feminine energy because I had 2 extremely strong and dynamic women in my life - my sister and my mum - who are very driven and accomplished in what they do. I even had a female dog who was my best friend when I was small and inclined to hit it off with women better than I did with men. I took the best from my father too, equally as driven, thoughtful, creative and motivated and turned into a product of my environment and nurturing.
As I went through the turmoil of my younger years, I was "all that changes and shifts. " My moods, my angles, my uncontrollable emotions and thoughts...I have described it many times...were like a tornado within me that absolutely refused to quit. Even if it did stop temporarily, back up it would storm again. Blend that with lacking deep purpose after my baseball career finished and an enormous mess was made. So I crashed like the sea for a while...and ultimately found my way to writing.
But lately this dynamic shifted in a big way as the bubbling up of my purpose came to me and I started to read, understand, and practice what strong masculine energy actually was. This has not just only opened up my world, but has opened up the worlds of the great men who live around me. There's an idea that has entered into my mind which has stuck with me for months now, and it's the idea of the mountain. That solidity - identifying with what does not change in this world. The undoubtable stableness of being absolutely 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 will tell you...mountains don't just move in front of him...he becomes the mountain. Whatever happens around him swirls and yet he is completely calm, planted, and is still deep set in his deepest want. 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 deepen your existing relationships your friendships, your family dynamics, and how you show up in the world. It did for me. As soon as this hit - bloom - unfold - open - closing the chasm - joy - truth - integrity - determination through anything.
Women are similar to the ocean. They shift, change, and adjust by the second. In just a moment, a calm sea can change into a series of rogue waves. As a man, you are there in your small ship wondering how the hell you might climb up that wave before it crests. Women are life itself. They offer, literally, what it means to be alive. Why do you think they call it Mother Nature? Everything that shifts around you is moving energy, a type of power that surely is uniquely feminine energy and can be accessed. But those waves for men who don't understand what it really means to be the captain of their ship can be rocked straight out of their ship - I cannot tell you how often I have been tossed out of my ship or perhaps even bailed before the wave hit. But give a man a purpose, and that wave starts to appear like fun. Moreover, that wave can induce your most significant purpose.
This is the part that truly has changed my life completely.
Every day I sit comfortable down and write, I am absolutely driven by a type 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 type of energy that if you focus on it deep enough, you will find a low frequency lull...that is surprisingly deep and powerful. A wavelength that has existed far before everybody and one that will absolutelybe here forever after. I'll feel it circulate through me often when I'm 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 changed - and get impressed by all of that energy. That energy runs straight through my writing - and yet, all at the exact same time, I really am here, fully grounded in my place - living as if I was already dead.
Fear, in my heart, disappears.
There I solidly am grounded, in my deepest purpose, totally and totally impressed by the women around me and that amazing feminine energy...creating, loving intensely and open to all doubt. It's this dynamic, the one between the male and the female - and my tapping into both - that really has taught me more than anything else. This has opened me up, deeply changed my relationships, and helped me continue to discover parts of myself that I did not know existed. Floods of people have showed up in my life and I am able to see all of it morphing, only to understand that it will all change and pass...and that's wonderfully OK.
