62_Her-story

We separate at birth as twins and if we are of opposite sex: it is a case of herstory to his. We all know what history means, but a chronological line of how matter develops and evolves time in being. Forever then we are making history. From a glance to a dance, to a kiss and tumultuously more. If we take a glance over there for a second time, we may notice the light changed slightly. But are we governed by our history or not? That is entirely up to the individual always fervently looking into the future. A past of crisis in Lanzarote during the 90’s bought about change for the better to return to Manrique’s ideals and to make sense of bitter clothing for an island dressed as lamb, in a volcanic tumult, of deceptive touristic development. We can find out here that we seem to repeat an element of history in waves, from good to bad, struggling to move on.

Once there was a saying that ‘dignity only blushes the bride’, but when you really believe Jeremy Dutcher’s ‘Ultestakon’ will turn around a depleted indigenous community to Canadian shores. Then you have found something to relish in and forever more. To see the virtue in someone and to gain haste like them to the finish line of supreme riches, wishes and transcendence among many. It only takes someone, just one to inspire, as Hamlet said in Shakespeare’s epic: ‘This above all: to thine own self be true.’ As he dearly loves Ophelia but cannot accept her refusals.

Ladies and gentlemen, these are the days that stand out: the refusals to our self-development and learning, just as much as the successes. But never let those days define you and instead focus on what you have built for yourself so far, for that far out fathoms the basics of history. Of course, herstory is different, in a world never designed for both sexes until the woman came through. To live and succeed was and still can be hard work to survive particularly up until the early 20th C. If we did not have women, we would not have good education, an opposing view, emotional daily life, the ebb and flow of the tides, the female form, and we literally wouldn’t be here. Here is to the women’s vote: a democratic rule born just 101 years ago and to the Suffragettes: for Emmaline Pankhurst’s Women’s Social and Political Union who began in 1903, and who poorly did not win until 1918, but here is to their eventual tumult.

Therefore, we must listen to Extinction Rebellion who have been in the News of late, fortunately Greta Thunberg got to speak to the politicians today, who are responsible for the next action, yet Theresa May was not there of course, finishing meetings at 10 Downing Street. Greta, just 16 years of age, asked for the politicians to: ‘listen to the Science’. And this is where we come to an end, where history and herstory come together in unison, and start to equate. No-one longer wants to see new born children disadvantaged by ill health and to see some Mother’s undergo mental health problems from the virtue of just having a child.

Mothers, and Fathers rise together united with your children, say no to smoking, drinking and drugs, say no to remorse, disgust and guilt, say no to arguments, countenance or shame. You have both and all come so far, so now is a time to bring the unconscious love to the conscious fore, of your global success. As one of the happiest countries, currently 15th according to the UN, we can all go on rising to new heights.
