I don’t believe much in organized religion, but I do believe in faith. And so whatever God may be above you tonight, may they hear my voice in this place.
To all the woman forgotten somewhere between hell’s fury and heaven’s gate, may God hear your prayers tonight. May you have strength. May a man’s weight on your back be little less today. May you be warm and fed and find a way to push away all the atrocities that have befallen you - even if that means you have to let go. May you have the courage to defend yourself, even if you should die because of it- may dignity find you somewhere in those dark hours and convert an ounce of your pain into rage. May you see a way out - even if it has no happy ending but for yourself. May justice be given to you, may you trust its delivery even if you should stop breathing in its absence. May you comfort one soul tonight and may you find that gentle warmth beside you as you close your eyes. May you have had the chance to love someone and had the experience of being loved back. May you take solice in knowing that someone, some where is fighting for you - even if you won’t meet them in this life. May you not carry this burden, pain or memory into your next life. But most of all may you have the courage to choose to end your own pain and suffering if it is too great and may no judgement ever be passed on you by any man, God or universal plane.
For the children who are barely woman - know that however long this fate is for you it breaks my heart. Please fight hard. Find the courage to get away and please know that a man can and will touch you one day without disgust and rage. Don’t die there, but if you do - it will be ok.
I was lucky enough to be born a woman without any chains - and even though I understand that you may not have always been chained, please know that I do not take for granted a single day.
We need to find a way to stop men from destroying the whombs that give birth to their son’s. The future men that grow up to do that very thing. My vagina is not a means to pay back God for bestowing it upon me - it was a gift. A gift of life far greater than any man can understand and with that gift I will one day give birth to son’s that are able to understand. Son’s that will one day become the type of men that understand that even though a woman may be a lamb, she is a great seed- and that seed must be protected from all evils - any man, beast or poison.

Ethiopian girl guarded from gang rape & assault by three lions.
“The girl had been taken by seven men who wanted to force her to marry one of them. She was beaten repeatedly. Then the lions chased off her captors. The three lions guarded her for about half a day. They stood guard until we found her and then they just left her like a gift and went back into the forest.”
Then, Stuart Williams (the local wildlife ‘expert’) suggests that perhaps the lions mistook the 12 year old girl’s cries for a lion cub. Which seems awfully silly, considering that lions are perfectly capable of telling the apart the gazelles they eat from their own cubs, aren’t they?
wow
BIG CATS ARE THE BEST ANIMALS EVER.
this is why lions are my favorite oh my god, they’re fucking awesome :’)

P Dudar - The Reason
( I miss you hun - remember that )
My head is on fire - my heart is pushing through.
This want, this wait…..for something far beyond this truth.
I’m sinking a little here - waiting on time’s current to remember where it left me. Pick me up, push me forward - connect all the years past and present to this.
My swollen breasts remind me that they’re impatient - gypsy promises have shelf lives too. I quiet them. Ignore their loudening stance. Shhhh….you’ll wake the heart machine and demons long left unstirred.
I’ve grown quiet these past few years - put away hot emotion, placed temptations far from home. Patience echos beneath this wolf skin coat and I hear the lamb bleat…..I miss the tigers in my life - and so diplomacy has its price.
Exhale.
Find me here….along the edge of this deep forest. The splinters of this frustration slithering their way in - my heavy heart alive and hindering its ability to drown my instincts beneath this delicate white skin.
Stop time for me………….I just need a moment to find my way in.
Huff.

My New Years Resolution 2012:
To live more without thinking about the consiquence. Learn to master and enjoy financial instablity. Trust that it will all turn out ok - no one has forgotten you - and the time is near when the constant “epic” you have been living will be highlighted in the celebrity world.

(translated) On Wednesday, December 21, Muscovites had a flashmob in the subway for an honest election. Participants of the rally went for an hour on the subway with mouths taped with white tape, “They stole our votes,” “Give me back my voice,” “More silence is impossible.”
