Discover the POWER of your Erotic Self.
Do you long to feel ALIVE?
Excerpts from Uses of the Erotic, by Audre Lourde.
The erotic is the nurturer or nursemaid of all our deepest knowledge.
For once we begin to deeply feel all the aspects of our lives, we begin to demand from ourselves and from our life-pursuits the they feel in accordance with that joy which we know ourselves to be capable of.
We have been raised to fear the yes within ourselves, our deepest cravings.
The fear that we cannot grow beyond whatever distortions we may find within ourselves keeps us docile and loyal and obedient, externally defined, and leads us to accept many facets of our oppression.
Recognizing the power of the erotic within our lives can give us the energy to pursue genuine change within our world.
