Mother Lying Soul

More From Herman Melville

Where lies the final harbor, whence we unmoor no more? in what rapt ether sails the world, of which the weariest will never weary? where is the foundling’s father hidden? our souls are like those orphans whose unwedded mothers die in bearing them: the secret of our paternity lies in their grave, and we must there to learn it.

In an ideal world, we would have been orphans. we felt like orphans and we felt deserving of the pity that orphans get, but embarrassingly enough, we had parents.
Parent World Pity
Men, to exist, to become complete and mature, need to feel the joy of fatherhood. when a man does not have this desire, something is missing in this man, it is like an incomplete life: a life that stops half way. the grace of fatherhood; of giving life to others, of pastoral paternity, of spiritual paternity is a gift from god.
Spiritual Men Giving
There were lots of lies along the way in life. lies without arms, lies that were ill, lies that did harm, lies that could kill. lies on foot, or behind the wheel, black-tie lies, and lies that could steal.
Lying Way In Life Feet
Generations of women have sacrificed their lives to become their mothers. but we do not have that luxury any more. the world has changed too much to let us have the lives our mothers had. and we can no longer afford the guilt we feel at not being our mothers. we cannot afford any guilt that pulls us back to the past. we have to grow up, whether we want to or not. we have to stop blaming men and mothers and seize every second of our lives with passion. we can no longer afford to waste our creativity. we cannot afford spiritual laziness.
