Craving For Power

"Men make the moral code and they expect women to accept it.

They have decided that it is entirely right and proper for men to

fight for their liberties and their rights, but that it is not right and

proper for women to fight for theirs."

Emmeline Pankhurst

We owe a debt to those role modeling equality between the sexes; to parents who are equating self respect and confidence as a right to all children; and to the men who are stepping forward in support of this long coming evolution of women.

Through trial and error, we learn a moral code of our own that deeply applies and impacts our core.  One could use the word standard  but I am more focused on  integrity ... who you are when no one is watching.  When we fill our core with compassion and insight, we develop an inner sense of who we are and learn to love ourselves.  It becomes obvious how we want to interact in life with respect and honor.  

Negative experiences as well as positive ones, give us the opportunity to choose our actions or how we want to be conceptualized.  It takes courage to stand aligned with our inner spirit, to remain loyal to our understanding, and also be flexible to stretch and grow.  Men and women alike, who reflect a sense of integrity tend not have a craving for power over others.
