Card of the day: 7 of Swords. Someone is trying to pressure you into lying to save both your asses. Don’t do it! It’s difficult to keep up a lie, and this card is a great reminder of that. #Deception #Trickery #TurningaBlindEye https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwz5RX3HUPHRHEnUTriOzqGmClcWbMGNl5G9o00/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1d2wdx30tjnjy
She gets it.
She gets this very simple reality.
And no “MeToo” online hashtag appliance is going to make a difference to a very big problem.
It would require people to “actually” act as if there were a problem, for it to be recognized as one. “Speaking out” isn’t enough, but it can be if footing a pedal to make the change is the motive. Saying things like “people are speaking out” isn’t a novelty, because this has been happening before a hashtag trend began.
Women behave prude at the notion of the very nature of something that they were birthed with and of something of which has birthed others.
Why have so much power if you are not going to stand in it or make use of it.
A king is not a king without the impression of power attached to the position.
A king is not existent without the distinct of a woman to make him so.
The world is quite literally paused without you, “their” world is paused without you, their status is lowered without you, there is not a singular power
Your existence is power.
