Oh when, when, will all of earth's people join arms in song rather than picking up arms to destroy one another? When? What will it take for that to happen?
Likely, yet the patriarchy has created our present chaotic world (?)….somehow I feel matriarchal energy holds more nurture… more love/less war, etc., & would have done a much better job.
My greatest hope is for an egalitarian society that doesn't define power along gender lines. But there's no guarantee that would be any better either! Point is, I guess, we have to start where we are, and right now patriarchal values and dynamics have brought the world to its knees . . .
Brought me to tears, tears of hope and beauty. Thank you
Does the same to me every time I watch!

Sigh . . . tears . . . I cry out these questions with you, Stephanie!
Perhaps in a matriarchal world ……

But doesn't matriarchy too have its shadow side?

I like that re: “ an egalitarian society that doesn't define power along gender lines. ”
Thanks once again Phyllis. If only there were 8 billion people singing this!
If only . . . but in the meantime, let's sing out loud and strong!
