Babies As Weapons

Seeing Anna for the second time ever I think has really made me realize so many things about life, love and family. Throughout my life, I’ve listened to the joys of those close to me say: “I’m going to be a dad” or “I’m pregnant”.

I have barely ever responded differently than, “Oh my God, I’m so happy for you, congratulations!” But now I realize that that amount of joy for my friends is not even close to being enough. That what had just been announced to me is nothing short of a miracle. There was always something in their eyes when they announced this that I’ve missed seeing all this time; until now.

They had a certain glow I somehow never previously saw. An aura more powerful than a supernova they emitted when they spoke of being a father or mother. My interpretation is that they knew they were now a part of this miracle of child conception that I am speaking of.

To explain a little further of my opinion of what a miracle is, I’ve narrowed it down to only two things that I believe constitute a miracle: Marriage, and the birth of a child. Please allow me to define my thoughts, and again opinion on this.

Marriage is a profound concept because it is of such a great sacrifice beyond rationale thought from not one but two people, it defy’s what could be considered “the norm”. I’ll attempt to define in this example:

The two lovers that are married are people. But who you are married to are wings. And when you fall, are pushed, jump, or by some odd event removed from the ‘cliff of life’, will your partner be there to be your wings? Will you fall below and die, or will you be gently set back to earth because your wings helped you to land safely? Essentially, will your partner be there for you? Knowing that they will be there, or do everything possible in their power and beyond to be there is truly a miracle.

Birth of a child...A specific ability by design for only one of the two sexes of the human species. Yes, not to be done alone as a male is needed here for this (please exclude modern science, and revert back to the original concept), but the fact that a human can produce another human.

How can one define such a profound ability to do that? A humbling talent ladies can do, and I have always been in absolute awe of this. On the outside, you look like any another human and mostly the same as any man physique wise, but something exclusive only to you has been installed on the inside: the power to produce many more humans. No doubt a miracle!

This to me is why a woman’s choice in who the father will be should never be random, taken lightly, and should not be abused. Be skeptical! You have a power that can define a cultural future, so be wise and methodical; this in turn can inspire a man to learn patience and perhaps a dose of wisdom for himself.

Knowledge is power yet knowledge always changes. Wisdom never changes.
