If I Was A Man I Wouldn’t Want To Commit Either!
“I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day.”
Rock and Roll All Nite, KISS
I just celebrated a milestone birthday. I am bringing in a new year of life with lots of energy and a renewed love for life.
I was dancing tonight, and Rock and Roll All Night by KISS came on. There is something about the lyrics that makes me feel free and childlike. As I was dancing wildly in my room I stopped and a thought came to me:
“I want to feel like this for the rest of my life.”
Like anyone who is alive, I am getting older by the year. But I never want to feel like life is slipping away from me. I don’t want any commitments. I don’t want to belong to anything or anyone.
I want to think that the way I lived in my previous lifetimes has certainly influenced my insistence for freedom in this one. I have had the privilege of spending most of my lifetimes as a woman, but there were a few lifetimes that I have spent as a man.
In the lifetimes when I was a man I always served as society’s version of a respectable, influential, upstanding man. I was highly educated. I fought for my country. I got married and had children. I made lots of money and rose in the ranks of my career. I was never a fuck boy or a player.
