mantha

A Spain-Cuban-French author who was famous for her journals. She was also known as a female erotica writer , a title that was rarely found in early 1900s.  These sentences are all about us, women—a wild  thought we keep to ourselves, a covert wish in our prayers: "I do not want to be the leader. I refuse to be the leader. I want to live darkly and richly in my femaleness. I want a man lying over me, always over me. His will, his pleasure, his desire, his life, his work, his sexuality the touchstone, the command, my pivot. I don’t mind working, holding my ground intellectually, artistically; but as a woman, oh, God, as a woman I want to be dominated. I don’t mind being told to stand on my own feet, not to cling, be all that I am capable of doing, but I am going to be pursued, fucked, possessed by the will of a male at his time, his bidding." Can't find a better way to express it. Originally posted on Facebook notes, 1 October 2009

“It happens like this.   "One day you meet someone and for some inexplicable reason, you feel more connected to this stranger than anyone else--closer to them than your closest family. Perhaps this person carries within them an angel--one sent to you for some higher purpose; to teach you an important lesson or to keep you safe during a perilous time. What you must do is trust in them--even if they come hand in hand with pain or suffering--the reason for their presence will become clear in due time." Though here is a word of warning--you may grow to love this person but remember they are not yours to keep. Their purpose isn't to save you but to show you how to save yourself. And once this is fulfilled; the halo lifts and the angel leaves their body as the person exits your life. They will be a stranger to you once more. Lang Leav, Love & Misadventure

"People's pursuit of material things in life, the concept that only physical things are real, has really impacted and damaged traditional culture and martial arts." -Longfei Yang, Master of 7 Star Praying Mantis
