Seeing Off the Army: from the cycle “Kulikovo Field” (Ilya Glazunov, 1979)
This illustrates why our men fight. They do not fight for nebulous notions such as “democracy”; they fight to protect us women and our children. They fight to keep our homes safe and secure. It is part of their God-given task as men. Our task as women is different, we nurture new life, we have a different gift altogether. So many today believe that the traditional roles were man-made and constricting. I am not so sure. My observation is that men and women are quite different, on a very basic and ontological level. Of our own accord, we naturally follow quite different paths, but, both are intertwined and interdependent.
I can feel her concern and heartbreak… can’t you? Shall he return? God willing…
