The Goddess's Right...

“Our goddess have birth to your god.”

I heard that phrase in a song and I thought that it was worthy of my time to properly ponder it. The goddess represents the Earth, the sacred dirt that we stand upon. But there is a far deeper meaning to the idea; something that is much more entrenched in historical weight. Goddesses have been a large part of religions for the majority of human history; worshipped alongside gods. It was only until recent human history that the female divinity had been silenced to make room for a male god. The patriarch has tried to suppress the idea of female divinity, but they have failed. I, through the pen in my hand, have succeeded in finding the sight of the mother. How this has come about is by writing from the perspective of her human incarnate. What I must say is that the perspective of a woman is of such strong feelings and emotions…it is a feeling that I truly adore.

          And one thing that I must say is this: if humanity is to continue as a patriarch, then we will only know of war and pain. The true human spirit will die and whither in the smoke of bullets. But if we rise as a matriarch, our minds will flourish. Science, law, the arts, literature, all of the constructive human habits will be our amazing achievements. Our souls would soar like birds in the sky. But this hope, I know, will not happen in my lifetime. Humans are too heavily entertained by wars based on pride.

          We are our own destruction.

"in a song(,) and I thought"

Humans are a very proud race. But we cannot exist without war. It is impossible for human nature to let things slide. Someone always has to have the upper hand, and one way to gain control (as seen in the animal kingdom) is through violence and intimidation. There is no Utopia, no beauty without pain, no peace without war.

But your final line was very beautiful. I have often thought that as well. A wonderful, thought provoking read.

The scary part. Your words are true in this chapter. The human race is heading toward death and destruction without a real fight to stop it. Thank you for a outstanding chapter.
