The universe is built upon the tension of opposing forces: plus and minus, light and darkness, masculine and feminine. This duality is not a random structure, but the secret of all movement, creation, and balance. The same principle is mirrored in man and woman – two opposites who complement each other like a key and a lock.
When a mature man and woman meet each other spiritually, emotionally, and physically, a union is born that is not only biological or cultural – but cosmic. This love is more than just feeling or compatibility. It is primordial and archetypal, an eternal story that repeats itself in the deepest myths and legends. It is the story of princesses and princes, Adam and Eve, yin and yang.
Where difference creates attraction and where diversity does not destroy unity but gives birth to it. It is the path to life and new beginnings, but also a mirror of spiritual maturity – a deep union of two beings who need each other but are also independent.
However, in today's chaotic world, where people live detached from natural principles and play uncertain role games with their identities, such love is largely lost – or outright absent. It is a rare bright spring in a desert land, even though it is what people most deeply yearn for: true complementarity, the union of real opposites.
This is the highest love. Lightest by feeling, yet heaviest by meaning.
High culture, such as the finest operas, depicts the love between a man and a woman. Love at its highest and most sacred, at its most golden, is the love of man and woman. Men can of course love each other spiritually, but when it comes to physical love between men, I call it perversion. Has there ever been an opera made of that?
Today's world is upside down. Families are plagued by sick relationships where the role of the father is weak. Boys grow up fatherless and must invent their own model of manhood. The weak seek security in their own gender’s falsehoods instead of real relationships. We talk about anything goes, anything goes and everything is measured only by individual rights. When will a man still marry a woman? When will healthy families be created again?
The symbol of Pride Week is the rainbow. The rainbow is a holy symbol – God’s promise to mankind after the flood. Sadly, this symbol of God’s covenant with man has been taken into political and ideological use. Each can think for themselves what it says about our times that precisely the sign of peace is attached to identity-political passions.
