Men, it’s OK to be sensitive, caring, empathetic, loving, and humble. All of that is a strength, not a weakness. Right now dudes it’s time to allow ourselves to be vulnerable. I know it’s not easy, but good things in life are seldom easy. I just see the world is in need of a new sense of masculinity that is warm and welcoming to everyone. Of course, don’t let anyone take you for granted. I also think we need to have open hearts and bigger tables. That is just what I am thinking about today.
I am a fairly humble person. However, if my ego would permit it, I wouldn’t mind having a church pew with my name engraved on a small plaque or something like that. I can’t image anything grander than that.
However, if I wanted to go bigger, perhaps a scholarship in my name for students with learning disabilities. Anything practical that can make lives better would be alright with me.
I don’t think I have done much in life to earn such a tribute, really. I’ll let others be the judge of that.
We are just chilling out on a Saturday afternoon.
Watching The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes because it’s a fictional dystopia vs. real life dystopia. This origin story of President Snow and the early days of the Hunger Games is a cautionary tale and shouldn’t be a plan for the future. It’s about fascism and injustice. This movie is a great prequel to the original Hunger Games movies.
I just noticed these encouraging words on a cough drop wrapper today. It’s nice to see stuff like this every now and then.
The wise thing to do is to prepare for the unexpected.
