Men and women are equal. Let us start from here.
No. They are not.
We are over 7 billion people living together at this very moment on this planet. From all these seven billion people, there are no two equal individuals. There is no man equal to another man, no woman equal to another woman, and no man equal to a woman. So stating that a group of people, men, are equal to another group of people, women, is illogical and so false that it should not even be discussed.
The highest form of happiness that you can achieve in this lifetime comes from the expression of individuality. When you truly express what and who you are as an individual, you will feel true freedom, peace, gratitude, and happiness.
You can only express who and what you are if you discover who and what you are. You will only find out who and what you are if you are searching. I mean, really digging.
Matthew 7: “Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.”
Yes. We are all one. But each of us is a different part of that “one.” Think of it as a tree. The human species is the tree. And each of us is a different leaf. There are 7 billion leaves on that tree, but no two leaves are the same.
Lazy people yell for equality. People who work hard on themselves and strive to overcome their condition and situation don’t want and don’t need equality. They found themselves, or an idea of who they are, and now they work every day to improve that person so that they can be a good member of the community, a vital family member, a great parent, and so on. They wake up every day and work hard on themselves, to the extent of their abilities, to become the best “leaf” they can be. And they invest all their energy into that.
Lazy people invest all their energy into yelling: WE ARE EQUAL, WE WANT EQUALITY!
No! We are not equal, and we don’t want you to stand with us on the podium of life just because you were born and then refused to find yourself, improve yourself and express yourself to find true joy and meaning in life.
I don’t want to be equal to you.
I want you to be better than me at everything. I want you to beat me at everything so I may be impressed with you because of what you became with hard work, pain, and struggle. I want you to inspire me.
So, in conclusion, everything starts with “self.”
If you want to find yourself, you must talk to The One who crafted you from Himself.
Yes. God!
Who else?
Form a relationship with Him by talking to Him daily and with Him, and in Him, you will find yourself, and together with Him, you can perfect yourself. After all that, you may express yourself and feel true liberation and happiness.
There is no other way!
Remember the tree I talked about earlier?
We, as humans, are the leaves. Jesus Christ is the trunk and the branches because all communication with The Father is made through The Son.
John 14:6: “Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
And The Father, God, in the tree analogy, is the fertile land in which the tree is planted and the space in which the tree can exist because nothing is without “I AM.”
Exodus 3:14 “God said to Moses, “I am who I am. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I am has sent me to you.'”
So, my friend, no equality because equality brings comfort, and comfort brings death to individuality and to the individual.
Talk to God, find yourself, build yourself, and express yourself. And if you are not searching for yourself in God and through Him you will find the EGO. And the EGO is an abyss that is never full.
Don’t strive for equality. Strive for greatness and excellence, and inspire us all to be better by expressing yourself. Your true self!
With love, yours truly, Cristian.
