"... One of the things that seems to be a teaching for me in this walk is just that: the unbinding of my spirit from the limitations set by my matter.
We limit ourselves with labels all the time! And then we use those same limits to attack ourselves or others! "Boys don't cry" so we limit our men from connecting to their own sensitivity and then bitch because they aren't the loving, nurturing companions we need. We teach that "Good girls are obedient" and then we wonder how a woman who is obviously being mistreated/abused can't seem to extricate herself and her children from a possibly dangerous home life.
History will show how time and again the "other" is demonized, vilified and dehumanized so as to ease the transition of a civilian to a soldier... It's all done by labeling "good" or "bad"." - Nanu Pagan 8/02/12
