Yes, this is the hard truth that we swallow each morning (and wonder why our throat chakras are in pain). We...we are asking "too much" of the men in our lives as they refuse to show up for us and our children in ways that are balanced and healthy. They, for too many generations, have been entitled to the privilege of our bodies and souls. And now, we reap the reward for this by being alone...the gift that keeps on giving. Boo!
