An Emotional Oak Tree Part One
In relationships there is a double standard that the woman can be very emotional but the man can not. This is true to an extent, the man can emotional but not as emotional as the woman or she will be running for the hills, and you will lose most women there after. Once you have what it means to be a solid oak tree A LOT of your emotional tendencies fall off. Being an oak doesn’t mean you are an emotionless robot, it just means to be free of fear, doubts and insecurities.
In my upcoming blog “what it means to be a man” I talk about the one characteristic that defines a man: courage. With the right girl it is more than ok to have fear just as long as you have the courage to push through this fear.
The only limiting factor that prevents men and women from having true sexual polarity and becoming who they are in their nature (yin/yang, leader/follower, dominant/submissive) is fear. To be yin, a woman must be strong enough to let go and completely follow the man’s lead. Its fear of being toyed with and screwed over that prevents this from happening. In the past she was needy and let guys get away with whatever they wanted. This memory is brought to the surface whenever she tries to be yin and the fear of looking stupid for giving away her power is too strong for her to be submissive.
For a man, there are many fears around being yang, masculine and leader. He fears that he will be thought of as controlling by his friends, family and especially the girl but controlling is not yang. You can never control anyone because of free will.
Deeper than this, he fears that if the girl thinks he is controlling she will leave. He also fears that the whole dominant/submissive, yin/yang polarity will be abusive to the woman or that he will become drunk on his power and go overboard. But one of the biggest fears is that he will have to force himself to become an unemotional robot who mechanically works his way through his relationships.
Being yang doesn’t mean that you behave like you just had a stroke. A lot of the emotions that most of today’s men express are based in fear, doubt and insecurity. I’m going to break down each of these emotional states that guys fear losing.
Anger
Anger is a very strong and useless emotion. Guys often confuse this with being a man-its not. They hear the word spanking ( raising ones voice to get a girls attention when they are acting in fear and insecurity) and think that it comes from anger. Yelling in anger will actually cause the girl to lose trust for a guy. Whenever we become highly emotional we become off balance and no longer hold that rock/oak tree position.
If her going out to a club angers you, you are no longer calm and relaxed and just re-acting to her behavior. She knows that you are not centered and can be pushed into different directions. People trust what is consistent and reliable. Emotional, childish outbursts aren’t trustworthy.
Not reacting to anything she does is trustworthy, anger is not.
All anger is based in fear, insecurity and lack of acceptance of oneself or others. “We don’t hate what people are but what they aren’t.”

I talked in length about over joy and over excitement in my post http://innergamereframe.com/treat-it-like-the-most-natural-thing-in-the-world/

Live Oak Tree Acorn Traditions
The mighty live oak has captured the hearts and minds of many cultures throughout the ages, with several, like the pagans, actually worshiping trees. It's not that great a surprise when you realize that oak trees are useful in building, homeopathy, and even as a food source!
That last use has been common in Europe, where it provides a simple food source during times of famine. While it's said bread made from it is less than delicious, a full belly when there is food shortages would make it a major comfort despite it's taste. However, you can expect to spend a lot of time prepping the acorns before you can grind them to make edible flour.
This is because of the tannin within the acorn. It's both poisonous and bitter, so you definitely want to leech it out before even thinking about using it! However, you'll need to prepare the acorns before you can start leeching out the tannin. If you think it might be fun to make your own flour from a live oak tree, you'll likely want to choose the American Oak over the English Oak—it contains significantly less tannin, so the acorns require less leeching time. I would not try it unless you know what you are doing!
The first thing you'll want to do is pop them in the oven. Just place the acorns on a tray and use a very low heat to both dry them out, and to kill any bugs that might be present. So appetizing... this will get you ready for the first of the time consuming tasks you'll need to accomplish for your acorn flour.
Take your dried acorns, and crack the shells off. Only once the shells have been removed is leeching going to do you any good. Now you can finally begin the leeching process, which is time consuming but extremely simple. It's a matter of soaking the shelled acorns in water for as much as two weeks. Changing the water at least twice a day is also required to maximize tannin removal. After a few days, you can test them by simply biting into one to see if it's still bitter. If it is, soak them longer.
After that, it's a simple matter of grinding it into flour or meal, depending on how you prefer to make it. The best part is you don't have to wait on more drying time—you simply grind them up while wet, then set them in the sun or in the oven on a very low setting to dry them out again.
Obviously it's best to store this flour in jars with lids. To use it in your favorite recipes, just use it in place of traditional white flour and enjoy! The taste may take a bit to get used to, but you have to love getting something for free.
There are many old traditions related to Live Oak trees. One of those traditions concentrates on the fall, when the oak leaves begin to drop in the cooler climates. It is said that going out and catching a falling oak leaf will provide you with tremendous luck and prosperity during the coming year. Another belief is that you will not catch a cold that winter if you do so.
It is not hard to see what many cultures through the ages have seen in live oak trees. They are not only simply a beautiful tree, they can also supply us with much of what we need, including shade or acorns, and just maybe a little bit of good fortune. One thing is clear—with so much majesty and many uses, the precious live oak tree will be around for many generations to come.
