When women understand that governments and religions are human inventions; that bibles, prayer-books, catechisms, and encyclical letters are all emanations from the brain of man, they will no longer be oppressed by the injunctions that come to them with the divine authority of "thus saith the Lord."

-- Elizabeth Cady Stanton,

Let your love flow outward through the universe, To its height, its depth, its broad extent, A limitless love, without hatred or enmity. Then as you stand or walk, Sit or lie down, As long as you are awake, Strive for this with a one-pointed mind; Your life will bring heaven to earth.

~ Sutta Nipata

The Bible teaches that woman brought sin and death into the world, that she precipitated the fall of the race, that she was arraigned before the judgment seat of Heaven, tried, condemned and sentenced. Marriage for her was to be a condition of bondage, maternity a period of suffering and anguish, and in silence and subjection, she was to play the role of a dependent on man's bounty for all her material wants, and for all the information she might desire.... Here is the Bible position of woman briefly summed up.

-- Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Introduction, The Women's Bible 1895

According to the Gospel of Thomas (The Forbidden Gospel, Saying 22)

When Peter expressed his disapproval of the presence of Mary Magdalene, (Jesus's first woman disciple) in their entourage Jesus said," "When you make male and female, the two into one spirit, and when you make the inner spirit as the outer, into a single spirit as one, undivided, so that the male shall not be male, and the female not female, yet together, as One, you will enter my kingdom."

(Saying:616)-And Salome said to Jesus,"Who are you man?" Jesus replied, "I am he who exists from the undivided."

According to the Gospel of Philip-7 Nag Hammadi, Egypt,1947
Then Jesus said, " When the Spirit of Eve female, was in Adam, and they were as one, there was no death in the world. but when her female Spirit became separated from his male Spirit, spiritual death came into being."

“She seems so cool, so focused, so quiet, yet her eyes remain fixed upon the horizon. You think you know all there is to know about her immediately upon meeting her, but everything you think you know is wrong. Passion flows through her like a river of blood.

She only looked away for a moment, and the mask slipped, and you fell. All your tomorrows start here.”

Neil Gaiman, Fragile Things

Someone we deserve will have us feeling alive inside, will be somebody that we are really attracted to, not only physically, but mentally, and spiritually. Don't settle for what may seem ok, settle for being in love and being with someone who only wants to see you happy!
