Very interesting comment when chatting with Anna G. from Linking Your Thinking.
Anna said that when she thinks and writes in English, she is in the [[Masculine Principle]]. But when she thinks and writes in Russian, she is in the [[Feminine Principle]]. She says that Russian is the most beautiful language in the world because it is a language of metaphor.
