  Contemporary Gender Distinction - Why?

  by rune in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i think that as society progresses towards greater equality (even if there are temporary hindrances along the way), the question as to whether efforts towards reducing gender distinction should be attempted arises in some of our minds.

  clearly not everyone is going to agree on this.

  but i think anyone who is truly reasonable is going to desire that all people are treated more equitably, in fact as much as possible.

  What world do you live in? (long read)

  by rune in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this is just a little babble of mine.

  once you are finished i would really appreciate if any of you could take the time to flesh out just what existence and the world is to you.

  describe the sensation, the feeling with which you generally take it...everything to do with your perception.

  i know i have been quiet for a while... i am sorry my friends, hopefully i will think of something meaningful to say again someday, something we can all discuss and enjoy.

  things will never be the same again, and i hope that from this passing shadow to the next you find a piece of what you are looking for.. the tiniest things can make the most enormous differences.... i wish you all well.

  I am moved

  by rune in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i stayed up all night to see it... the buildings out the windows of my apartment shimmer in the distance as a wave of golden light rises from the horizon, painting the sky glorious shades of blue, violet and orange.

  the darkness recedes, creeping through the forests before the city.

  light, especially a sunrise, holds a special place in my heart.... what moves you?

  Why ? Why? WHY???

  by rune in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this topic has been rolling around in my head for some time.

  i don't expect that i'll write it perfectly as it needs to be articulated in different ways for different people...but i will do my best.

  and worst of all, i am not expecting any kind of response that will satisfy me.
