Let us give masculinity back its flowering wand of reciprocal relationship with the natural world. Let us call Dionysus to the gates of our cities and homes. A man who can dance with plants and honor beasts, a man who can be a woman and an androgen and an animal, is more than a gender. He is a celebration. A hive of humming bees. A secret network of fungus ready to erupt as the air moistens. A murmuration of birds. A cluster of grapes. A throng of singing women. A magician.

Sophie Strand, The Flowering Wand: Rewilding the Sacred Masculine

I have written from a body that is bent over, that has become stiff under the effects of Parkinson’s, that trembles, that goes forward and falls, and I have found my infirmity to be beautiful, I have felt that my tremors are lovely, that the challenge of holding up these pieces of paper that I now read is lovely. I have written about that body, about the pains that I myself have caused others and that I have inflicted on myself, I have recorded my poems on its skin. I have come to believe that only the sick, the weak, the wounded are capable of giving beauty to those ruins, that debris. Such beauty is intolerable and at the same time is the light of the world. When all of humanity bows down weeping before La Pietá, the world will have come to its end. Meanwhile, all we have are our ruins, our tiny misfortunes, our great loves, our horror, our deaths. --Raúl Zurita��

It's important to teach kids that girls are not ornamental objects. That women deserve to live in their bodies, not merely decorate them.

Only by welcoming uncertainty from the get-go can we acclimate ourselves to the shattering wonder that enfolds us. This animal body, for all its susceptibility and vertigo, remains the primary instrument of all our knowing, as the capricious earth remains our primary cosmos.

Pain is the body's warning system: nature's request the we stop what we are doing. But from an early age, dancers are inducted into a perverse relationship with pain. It isn't a sign that the body is under stress; it's a source pride, a sign of progress - something to be ignored, if not outright relished. As students, we found ways to make it all more painful, just to show we could. [...] We learned to find our limits and then push past them; to ignore the thousands of nerves in our feet and legs and backs that screamed for us to stop. We were proud, too, when our teachers corrected us, even when the corrections took the form of insults or painful physical adjustments - yanking our leg above our ear or shoving our rib cage into our chest. We measured our status by the number of corrections received: the more the better - no matter how harshly they were delivered. [...] Withstanding emotional pain, even humiliation, was another badge of honor.

The closer you are to being able to listen to your intuition, your emotions, and your body, the less likely you are to fall under the spell of an authoritarian who promises to keep you safe, be it from your own sinful soul or the apocalypse or whatever marginalized group your culture has decided must fulfill the role of scapegoat.

My mother is undeniably aging, and I find myself ruminating over her death. I have in fact been bracing myself for the end of her life since I was a child, because she has had a long-standing habit of insisting on the immanence of her demise. In all this time spent anticipating her end, I have from time to time imagined taking a small piece of her flesh into my body. I am already made up of her in more ways than I can know, yet to have her pass through me so palpably, to have her become part of me one last time in this indisputable way, would hold another kind of meaning.

In professing the resurrection of the body —and not simply the immortality of the soul— the church understands eternal life to be not something that we escape into, leaving behind the flesh and its existence in time, but something that lifts both the body and our time on earth into an eternal ripeness. Note that what happened to Jesus in the body in his time on earth he brings with him into eternal life. What had happened here was not swept away. It was transfigured. His lesions and his loves remained his own.
