An Evolution of Self: Man Share

What is Evolution?

“We began as a mineral.

We emerged into plant life, and into the animal state, and then into being human, and always we have forgotten our former states, except in early spring when we slightly recall being green again.

That’s how a young person turns towards a teacher.

That’s how a baby leans toward the breast, without knowing the secret of its desire, yet turning instinctively.

Humankind is being led along an evolving course, through the migration of intelligences, and though we seem to be sleeping, there is an inner wakefulness that directs the dream, and that will eventually startle us back to the truth of who we are.”

Man Share

The First Share

IN the beginning there was man and woman and for the first time in the history of all mankind woman had man to herself. Then she had a son. And for the first time she had TWO men all to herself. What a Divine Existence. Then she had another son and soon came to realize that in order to continue her line, her little men would have to eventually one day go out and find women. And they would all leave her and these women would then be responsible for extending her family line.

Fast forward to the 21st century and we are all sharing men. Who not sharing with mother, sister and daughter sharing with babymother, ex-girlfriends and good-up, good-up matey not to mention the dreaded female best friend who knows more about him than he has every revealed to you. There is and always will be some woman in your man's life. And if there is not a woman in sight, be very very wary.

Men who enjoy the company of women, know how to treat them and respect them are diamonds in a rough world. Keep them close and cherish them dearly.

They can be likened to an investment. You pick the one who will get the best returns. The one who has the most potential. Of course the more risk the more dividends. And the more attractive the berry the sweeter the juice and the higher the price you may have to pay. To some extent we have all bought shares in a man. Whether it be with time, effort, blood, sweat or tears. Woman has given her years and fears over to man. In return for love and protection.

So we keep men around. The best kinds of men. The kind of men who, in case your womb is ever blessed with a boy child he has the best role models around him. To groom him and grow him to be a gentleman. Respecting each and every woman.

When plotting the Development of any man, every woman must consider his relationship with his mother. Does he love and respect her? Is there any contempt towards her? Bad feelings or bad blood? If so, then he needs to heal before he can truly love any other person. No Man is an island. No man was born without the love, care and nourishment of a woman who made her body his home for 9 months. Man taken in isolation might be the biggest fallacy of all mankind.

The truth is, all men NEED women. To encourage and motivate them. The more women then the more love and encouragement a man receives and the more likely he is to succeed. So be ever thankful to the nurturing women in your man's life. They all play a part in helping him to be the best him he can be and if she isn't then you are eventually going to have a problem. And it will make your life miserable.

So for a peaceful life. Accept the women in your man's life. Live and let live. You'll be happier for it.

I am in no way advocating the violation of any vows or promises made between man and wife, I am merely shining a light on the women who often stand in a man's shadow so that he may shine.
