Listening now! Thank you so much for giving us a voice and a platform to amplify our thoughts and feelings
Am old. I live in a neighborhood where old people reside. Men die and women are left, is what mostly happens. So why do we think men’s work is so well done?
Maybe women live longer because they work in a frame of compassion. Where men work to produce more members, tithing, compliance. It’s like their worship structure forgot to incorporate peace which leads to understanding and compassion. Struggles to conform to the structure men understand is tiring.
