How long will prejudice blind the visions of men, darken their understanding, and drive bright-eyed wisdom from her sacred throne?
Kahil Gribran
Extract from the ProphetAnd then a scholar said, “Speak of Talking.”
And he answered, saying:
You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts;
And when you can no longer dwell in the solitude of your heart you live in your lips, and sound is a diversion and a pastime.
And in much of your talking, thinking is half murdered.
For thought is a bird of space, that in a cage of words many indeed unfold its wings but cannot fly.
There are those among you who seek the talkative through fear of being alone.
The silence of aloneness reveals to their eyes their naked selves and they would escape.
And there are those who talk, and without knowledge or forethought reveal a truth which they themselves do not understand.
And there are those who have the truth within them, but they tell it not in words.
In the bosom of such as these the spirit dwells in rhythmic silence.
When you meet your friend on the roadside or in the market place, let the spirit in you move your lips and direct your tongue.
Let the voice within your voice speak to the ear of his ear;
For his soul will keep the truth of your heart as the taste of the wine is remembered
When the color is forgotten and the vessel is no more.I knew you would read it. And no I don’t want a response from you.

Because they don’t always take out the uterus as its usually unnecessary, and the female hormone system means that they have to take testosterone for life to stay a man. The infertility treatment would be to make sure s/he ovulated I expect.

I have news for you all, this kind of thing isn’t as rare as you think. In fact, I expect that your children are all going to school with a child who has two “mummies” or two “daddies”. You just don’t know it.
It is a matter of thinking things through, and..trying to be empathetic. Trying to see things from the other person’s point of view. And… we live in a very complicated world Pats, far more so than ever before.
Perhaps I have more faith in human nature than you do pats.
