From the author: Magazine "Wheel of Life" WOMEN'S TRUTH©Anna Yasnaya Many modern women, fed up with various trainings and techniques on feminine topics, found themselves completely entangled in their own contradictions, and especially in the main question: “So what I must be? Ideally?...”…..I didn’t even bother looking around to find MY item. He, or rather She, instantly found himself in my hands - a little heavy, a little cool, and so precious... With my fingertips I felt the rough lines and contours of the intricate designs and patterns carved on Her by the ancient masters of Greece. There can be no doubt. The magnificent work of ancient culture turned out to be either a vase or a large bowl, on which pages of the history of magnificent Greece were depicted: with its gods, heroes and fragments of customs. It was perfection - both in form and in content......... - Now take YOUR item and find its true purpose in your home... – the voice of a master, the presenter of a seminar on depth psychology, sounded from somewhere far away. Carefully clutching my jewel to myself, I left the Shop of my Subconscious and immediately found myself in a snow-white city, shining surrounded by a sky the color of pure glaze. Easily gliding along the wide streets of this fantastic metropolis, I found myself in front of the wide open doors of a translucent house, comfortably located on the shore of the blue ocean. …. - Bring it in and place it... - said the voice. But my actions were already ahead of the master’s instructions: obeying my inner Knowledge, I entered the house and solemnly placed MY vase on the spacious table near the window. Either from the blinding sun, or from my tight hugs, the vase became warmer and began to change its texture. Sliding my fingers along its contours, I suddenly felt slightly different, softer and smoother outlines - the new vase already resembled a piece of pottery, just sculpted from pliable clay by skillful hands. It contained a fresh bouquet of wildflowers, filling the room with the spicy aroma of summer....... - And what MAIN conclusion can you draw from this? - the master asked a little later, praising me for the successful transformation and a safe journey into the depths of the subconscious. Unexpectedly, I was a little confused, feeling like a schoolgirl who had pulled out the “wrong” ticket in the final exam. -...Well?... - Come on - get an A, our excellent student! – my teacher encouraged me. -….It was….My reborn feminine principle? – I answered questioningly. – By removing the dominant male “yang” energy, which suppresses my feminine principle, I restored the homeostasis of my two halves and gained the integrity of male and female energies according to the formula of their correspondence: 53% - female, and 47% - male energies, which guarantees me Balance and Harmony ... - And to be more specific? – the master said sternly, who has been fighting with my almighty “yang” for the second decade. “Come on, Anechka, say THIS: “I am a homely...” - .... a woman! – a chorus of female voices sounded sympathetically from the hall. Over a long time of working together on their souls, the members of our group really became friends and became one family, where one is for all, and in this case - all for one, that is, for me. - I am a woman at home. – Out of respect for the master and the team, I obediently repeated this phrase, which was foreign to me, and then, as required, I wrote it in red pen in my workbook - as a reminder of the most important lesson I had just learned... Years later, lovingly leafing through my old notes from the time of my apprenticeship, I, already a certified specialist and master of seminars and workshops, smile sincerely when I stop at this phrase, written in an uneven and rebellious handwriting: “I am a woman at home!” Why?! My teacher is a great smart girl, and all her work was done efficiently and professionally, only... It turned out to be a lie in its purest form! I allowed myself to succumb to self-manipulation and even for a while to believe that it was THIS (the woman at home) andis my main goal on earth, and the absence of it in its pure form is the main cause of the problems existing at that time. Of course, the results of the lessons learned then were not in vain. I did the most important thing: I changed the centuries-old genetic code of my female race, took off my male armor, laid down my weapons, stopped taking upon myself all the burdens and sins of this world and learned to say to men the secret phrase: “HELP ME, PLEASE!”, periodically including the “correct blonde." I revived my inner Woman from centuries of wars, fears, losses and loneliness. And this turned out to be quite enough for me to be in a happy and harmonious state! - Well, Amazon, I hope you are no longer planning to build your next film and television industry? – my master asked warily after a while. “I have completely different plans at this stage!” – I smiled, anticipating my next dreams and their successful implementation. “Well done!” Finally, you really made me happy! – the master was sincerely happy. - and remember about your home vase... I must admit that soon after this seminar, for the first time in my entire life, I really managed to be a housewife in the full sense of the word: slowly, getting my child ready for school, and my husband getting ready for work, often looking into the kitchen and in the refrigerator and do not drive around the city and to meetings from morning until late evening. It was a whole six months! Exactly as long as it took me to write my first major story, “Crossroads.” It was a wonderful and unusual time! When a dressing gown did not harm creativity, and vice versa! I discovered in myself unusual perseverance and the ability for long-term concentration, when time is compressed into a spiral and turns into an instant thanks to an intoxicating and exciting creative process... And then, with a feeling of deep satisfaction after another successfully written chapter, I sincerely wanted to “shamanize” near the stove and be a domestic fluffy cat. But everything has its time. The book was written and published, and new ideas, plans and tasks swirled around me in a familiar and natural rhythm. Oh, and I spent too much time at home!..... I still can’t believe that I was able to do this in a state close to asceticism! What’s the result? I finally and irrevocably admitted to myself: “I am a FREE woman, and my self-realization as an individual in this world, my mission and my path, were, are and will be in my FIRST PLACE!” Moreover, being free does not mean being independent: independence is akin to loneliness. I am free in my CHOICE: both big and small, in my thoughts, feelings, actions, goals and in the direction of the path, I am free as a Personality and as a Human. And only I myself choose what my main purpose in this world is. I reserved the right, without the accompanying feeling of guilt and self-flagellation, not to like pots, not to know the recipe for making cabbage rolls, not to be a fan of sterile cleanliness and general cleaning, not to get carried away with growing flowers, designing curtains and not to play strict mother with my beloved daughter. I reserved the right to be MYSELF. Dear women, let's stop being disingenuous and deceiving ourselves in the pursuit of the illusory ideal of a super woman, which does not exist! Yes, there are no rules, regulations and canons that you must comply with! Every person is free in his choice, and even a woman! Of course, it was originally established by nature that the main female realization is the internal circuit: husband, children, family and home, and the external circuit - that is, society, this is already a male privilege and foreign territory. Yes, it was like that. But history, life, circumstances and people tend to change. The 21st century dictates completely different rules, values ​​and needs, the main of which is the self-improvement of the Personality and the transition to a different state of consciousness - free, developed, harmonious, intuitive and holistic. Therefore, before you drive yourself into any framework, honestly and frankly answer yourself one single question: “What do I really need?!»
