I see women as the water flowing through a river, and men as the riverbanks that give the water direction and shape. Neither exists in the same way without the other , the river needs water, and the water needs a channel through which to flow.
The missing 13th month was meant for endings.
A space to reflect, release, and reset before beginning again.
Instead, we're rushed from one cycle into the next.
The most important part of a cycle isn't the beginning or the end.
It's the space in between them.
The moment where old patterns die and new possibilities are born.
The space between ending and beginning is sacred.
That's where you shed old identities. That's where patterns are broken. That's where transformation takes place.
Most people skip it and repeat the cycle.
They teach you how to start. They celebrate when you finish.
But nobody talks about the space in between.
The silence after an ending is where transformation begins.
If you view the world in terms of Good vs Evil, or Right vs Wrong, nothing makes sense.
If you view the world in terms of competing interests, and different individuals and groups competing for power or finite resources,
Everything makes sense.
Mastery requires submitting your ego to reality, so instead of protecting your self-image, actively look for what you are bad at, expose your weaknesses through difficult tasks, and treat frustration as a signal pointing directly at the skill you need to build next.
