Being a Disruptor of the Extinction of Love
I woke this morning with the words:
“This world is made for the abusers – not for the abused.” Dropped into my lap.
My eyes were still closed, and yet I found myself (metaphorically) looking around like… What the heck – where did that come from?
It’s a big statement and not something I wanted to dive into. I threw it aside, but it kept coming back into the frame of my mind in a way that said: You need to look at this.
Sometimes, this is how I learn, understand, become aware, and heal. This is not the remedy of patriarchal western medicine but of our intuitive wisdom – a far more ancient, wild, wise, and timely offering. It waits on us to pick up the hints, the downloads, the wisdom… as we become ready to take on more and heal more.
Often, it doesn’t look like healing from our “linear time-frame perspective,” but what do we flesh suits truly know about the infinite and divine reasons for why we are here having (or going through) this experience of life?
And so, it began, as some mornings do, by sitting with this ethereal drop of information for my research, my healing, and understanding of things that are ready to be seen, heard, and transmuted.
On some level, it feels like an invitation to hurt more – to be unfuriated about those who hurt others, and grieving for the ones left hurting. This didn’t sound like a fun topic to me. But sometimes these morning downloads are filled with profound truths even when I don’t want to look at it. They come from a deep-down knowing. From the part of us that sees what most people are too afraid – or too comfortable – to look at or admit.
That whisper: “This world is made for abusers, not the abused” – is one of those statements that landed with a heavy thud of grief and clarity all at once. And, it is also something that needs to change.
This world, as it stands in its current systems: patriarchal, capitalist, exploitative, image-driven, is structured to reward dominance, power-hoarding, manipulation, emotional disconnection, and performance.
It has been built – generation after generation – by those who conquered, colonized, pillaged, denied, and skewed and dismembered truth. So naturally (but horrifyingly), those who harm often find easy pathways, wealth, respectability, and protection.
When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression.
