How do you love a mixed girl?
It is only after he journeys along his path and finds himself. But that can be said for any woman. For the mixed girl, he must travel civilisations. His own. Hers. And the others. He must understand the nature of her allegiances, her responsibilities, her relationships; and make Peace with this. He must see her heritage involves numerous tribes but only 1 family. Hers.
What kind of animal is she. What is her colour. What is her season. She comes from many different affinities, many of which contradict, and she has her unique balance. And it changes. She changes; and she can sit on different sides of the contradictions, at different moments, and simultaneously. He must see that in doing so, she adheres to a transcendent Constant; known within each of us, yet often remaining subtle, latent. He must see her within him, and him within her; since the beginning of his days, and the beginning of hers.
She is a world citizen, in an immediate and tangible sense. Here is where her ancestors all rest in Peace. And his politics must coincide with this. She traverses cultures and customs as her 1st nature, and he must learn to dance with her. Her citizenship shapes her preferences for music, film, art, food, and conversation. He can only tell her his what's what when he thoroughly understands hers.
He must see her beauty; her Divine beauty within, and her natural beauty without. He must understand that her natural beauty is other than exotic. Her natural beauty is the standard; and the Universe adjusts to her. Her Divine beauty demands that he progress beyond his fantasies of her. He must recognise her voice within his song.
He must know her hair. It is other than always straight. It is other than always curly. It is other than always long. It is other than always short. At the heart of it, she often sees herself within the eyes of others. And he must strengthen her vision of her self; and her Self. She is fine in any do.
He must ascend beyond his own self-defeatism. He has to make it about her, be about her; and encourage her to make it about him, be about him. He must see her and him within a community, with foundation and support. Amidst this, there is compromise, there are concessions; but with her, these are made for a higher purpose.
To love a mixed girl, he must look into her eyes and go beyond seeing himself; he must see the Truth.
