On Michelle Kwan's divorce and other Hillary-pples

Sometime in my work life, I had been offered a good paying locums job only that the lady boss breathes fire. It was not a happy environment and I salute the Filipina pathologist who managed to stay there awhile. I would come to encounter more of this former women sadly, older, accomplished, childless or not, married or divorced. If they were married their husband would have a roving eye, but they were too focused on their mission at work to care.

I reference Michelle because she had been played by the feminist camp, succumbing or bought into it like many aspirational-minded and able women, but ultimately was discarded, or have her core relationship discarded. To be surrounded by ball-busting, husband-ignoring females is never going to bode well for one's marriage. I mean, Hillary is her campaign boss.
When one experiences this persecution or hardship when one did only good and not evil, it is the best suffering that we can do and we can save many souls with it. Sometimes we are so blinded by our belief in our goodness that we keep thinking other people are making things difficult for us or that the evil one is blocking one's blessing, when the trials is part of a boot camp/ ripple effect that God wants you to learn from. For hardships can really be because of or from the circumstances caused by you. Thus the suffering is connected to your sin as a necessary part of chastisement.

Only until we have learned what our suffering is for is when it will be eased, says Fr. Albert Nzeh at a conference. Yet many women are still not getting it. Many women are struggling in the marriages because they were either fire-breathers or been allied to fire-breathers for so long. The sun gives gentle light and warmth; in its calm radiance, it benefits all creatures, even communicates and effectively aids the simplest plants.

If you are married, that is your core relationship. After God, your spouse is king. Marriage requires the man and the wife to hold themselves apart and special and sacred and separate from everyone else; they are consecrated for each other. To go between the couple, or to separate yourself as a couple is to court being anathema. Condemned. Kaput. Damned. Which is why mistresses are so loud and ill-disposed because the wrong is there and it cries out, spills out in other ways. Which is why women who have abandoned their husbands to fate will get hit back at the blessings and fidelity that was lost and rarely could be recovered. Covenant spouses know what is theirs, even when there is divorce or separation. Because God deemed marriage to be permanent, forever, enduring.

Just because you see another woman holding hands with your husband doesn't mean you end the marriage. Will you reject him if he has cancer or disease? You apply intervention. Some spouses have illegitimate children yet their prayerful wives have stayed with them. I mean, St. Monica even took care of the litter!

I have listed to a talk by Gloria Polo whose powerful testimony of being in hell and back--hell because she has rejected the sacraments and commandments!--was also enduring because of her story about her mother. Her mother, as she said, was uneducated, unemployed, married to a womanizing husband with whom she has seven children. Gloria thought her mother was a loser and never wanted to be like her. Yet her mother was happy! Joyful because she was in the Lord. She said, I came to be happy and so I am. She simply brought her wayward partner in prayer, never thinking of divorcing him, because as she explained to Gloria: I have to stay faithful to him and pray for him because I cannot go to heaven without him. I married him so we are one flesh.
His father was suffering yet rejoicing to God in purgatory, thankful for the woman God gave him and prayed for him for thirty plus years. Had it not been for her, he would be damned.

What God had put together, man cannot separate. And we are put together to raise each other up in holiness. No if's and but's about it. Holiness, sanctity, God is everyone's destination. To have a partner doing this is a great gift and thus underscores that for the married, their spouse is their core relationship.

Many in the women's movement, which is really a diabolical, socialistic, anti-God one, continue to spew venom, hate, rally, shake their heads, tout their opinions to media. They basically show their defiance to rightful authority--God included which makes their movement so futile--while showing the consequences of it (failed marriages, wayward or confused children and husbands, poor family life). They provide the very reason why they are not the people you should follow. Breathing fire does not win friends nor coworkers. Crushing balls does not win you points in either gender. Avaricious getting ahead to the point of forming support groups towards it ("leaning in") is not going help women but deceive them.
It's God and gift, people. God and your spouse. Your spouse, heavenly or earthly whom you will be a total self-gift to, yes, that dying-to-self bit. That giving-up-your-preferences-for-the-other bit. That maintaining-the-peace-and-let-God-be-God bit.
It is morning. Pardon me as I say a rosary for my beloved.
