My feminism is humanism, with the weakest being those who I represent, and that includes many beings and life forms, including some men.

I am trying to make art that relates to the deepest and most mythic concerns of human kind and I believe that, at this moment of history, feminism is humanism.

People have accepted the media's idea of what feminism is, but that doesn't mean that it's right or true or real. Feminism is not monolithic. Within feminism, there is an array of opinions.

Yes, There Are Two Gods
There are two kinds of Gods, one is always making creations, life, creatures, beings, consciousness, and going on without looking back, creating even more spectacular creations, universes, multiverses, ever greater complex life forms one more fantastic than the other.
There is another sort of God, one that creates a universe but gives a ram about the beings he created. This God is there, this god stays with his creatures, with her beings as they struggle, as they strive, he gives them space and the ability to co-create with her. The other god, could care less, he has other better universes and forms of life to make.
in this universe in our life now, these two gods are fighting it out, in our life now we are fighting it out with them as well. Do you want the greatness of the narcissistic God of cold selfish greatness. What a price you pay for being like this god or worshipping this god. He just made you to prove to himself how great he is, or do you align your self up with the God that gives a tam about you, he made you because she wanted to share herself and all of creation with you,
What is your choice let me know and why, it says a lot about who you are.

Pick The Right God.
One god cares for you, the other is so great he could careless.
One god cares for you, the other is so great he could careless, so very great he does not have time to care so he so artfully pretends to care. If you see he is a fake he will destroy you.

We may affirm, then, that the main drift of the later Renaissance was away from a humanism that favored a free expansion toward a humanism that was in the highest degree disciplinary and selective.

Humanism
To believe
In the deeds
And sayings
In which
We increase
The honour
Of humanity
Is the best definition
Of humanism
In which
The best point
To see
How we
Born
Our origin
Is it the left rib
Of Adam
Or the monkey?
Is it automatic
Or have
Specific
Reasons
Or
The question
You leave
Suspended
Animation?
It is up to
You
To your
Humanism.

When We Do Nothing, A Philosophizing
did he tell you
that even those who stand and wait
also serve?
which means precisely that those who do nothing
(also does something)
that by doing nothing
they also share
what you are thinking right now
do we think that writing is doing something
that thinking is also doing something?
what is it that which is nothing that we can do?
tell me.
everything is everything and it includes nothing actually.
everything embraces also nothing.
so when you do everything you also do what nothing is.
there is nothing that we can do.
everything is here, including this 'nothing'
do you really do nothing?
try thinking some more. try doing nothing, if it is possible at all.
i tell you, it is not.
really, it is.

Similarly, thought is a system. That system not only includes thought and feelings, but it includes the state of the body; it includes the whole of society - as thought is passing back and forth between people in a process by which thought evolved from ancient times.

There is no wealth but life. Life, including all its powers of love, of joy, and of admiration. That country is the richest which nourishes the greatest numbers of noble and happy human beings; that man is richest, who, having perfected the functions of his own life to the utmost, has also the widest helpful influence, both personal, and by means of his possessions, over the lives of others.

A joy in life
What is not there in life?
Children and beautiful wife
Mother, father including sisters
Sisters are out in search of misters
Children play ball game and throw
Happiness and joy freely flow
I feel happy and shine glow
It is mixture of feelings readily to show
There is joy and unhappiness
Anger mixed with liveliness
What to hide and what to show?
It has all the colors of rainbow
Peace on face represents white
Cheeks glow with redness bright
Anger and agony to represent black
Rope is tied around the neck
Instability is represented by red
Life in danger always to be led
Rumors and fears not to be fed
Keeping them together as a head
Life may represent charm with green
The family will be happy and clearly seen
All colors to have some peculiar position
It is fine blend of all the composition
Ups and down may come and go
We may remember seasons and not forgo
Life is to be lived with full enthusiasm
It is to be simple and not confined to idealism

Tibetan Prayer
'om mani padme hung,
om mani padme hung...'
may all beings be freed from suffering.
may all beings breathe as one.
may all beings live in peace.
may all beings learn to give.
may all beings walk in unity.
may all beings walk in forgiveness.
may all beings lay down their weapons.
may all beings be fed and have shelter.
may all beings know they are loved.
may all beings join hands.
may all beings live in awareness.
may all beings be freed from suffering.

This is no simple reform. It really is a revolution. Sex and race, because they are easy, visible differences, have been the primary ways of organizing human beings into superior and inferior groups, and into the cheap labor on which this system still depends. We are talking about a society in which there will be no roles other than those chosen,or those earned. We are really talking about humanism.

Unless one is a religious fundamentalist and believes that man was created in the image and likeness of God, it is foolish to believe that human beings are exempt from biological classification and the laws of evolution that apply to all other life forms.

Weakest Moments
Well, I hear you downstairs
Youre foolin around with your fathers brother
And your mothers gown
All the old heroes keep comin around
To find you, if youre still at home
So you lie in the sun, watch your body turn to tan
Your skin is oiled with the sweat of a man
He bought you a diamond ring, girl, to wear on your hand
And, baby, hes leaving tomorrow
Chorus:
Yeah, ill be with you in your weakest moments, uh huh
Yeah, ill be with you in your weakest moments
You say you remember when it was your world
And you were mister rubys girl
He gave you dreams and schemes that swirl
Around your head and your body
And when you drink sometimes, you try to liberate
And you stagger in the front yard till you find the gate
That swing on that thin line of love and hate
And baby, just let it go
Chorus:
Yeah, ill be with you in your weakest moments, uh huh
Yeah, ill be with you in your weakest moments

Black
black absorbs all forms
into its formlessness
including the mind
in the sphere of black
space is one primordial
nothingness till light
awakens the ego that
propels the quest for forms
we sleep well without light
so that the mind goes back
to the form of formlessness
sleep on, sleep on
darkness sleeps well in
the absence of light
