There will be no test today… again

God is not testing you. God is never testing you. It is you who is testing God, playing games and asking if God still loves you when you see yourself as so pathetic, failing and stumbling. But no, still no testing, still nothing but love and support and acceptance, even for you playing such games. You cannot fail enough, struggle, nor stumble enough to get God to turn its loving gaze from you. This is what it means to be God, and one day you will come to realize that this is what it means to be you.

Boys to Men

The sad truth is that you may not want men to be childish, and insecure, and immature, but that’s what you get when you tell them as kids that they shouldn’t feel, shouldn’t cry, shouldn’t be boys, should “grow up” and “be a man”, when they don’t have a foundation of self to build on.

This is a recipe for man-child, and men resent this aspect of themselves as much if not more than any observers might. Because again and still, were expected to not feel, not cry, “grow up” and “be a man.”
