MAN

Man. The very idea of him evokes thoughts of strength or its likeness, at least in the masculine sense. His existence is supposed to be of importance; so they say “It is a man’s world” but is it? If all adult male homo sapiens were exactly as defined will the earth be as it is or would things be different?
He tells me he’s a man but I say he’s not. What with his indecisiveness, lack of integrity, vision and direction. He doesn’t know who he is or what he’s about, yet because his balls have dropped he says he’s capable of ruling when he knows no reality save that which he’s thought and his thoughts are often erroneous. His actions and inactions speak loudly of his selfishness yet he says to her (a female that he fancies), “I can take care of you baby”. He can barely take proper care of himself; he doesn’t even know how to do that! His body looks good sometimes but his house is in disarray and his life is in disrepair. He needs to be informed what a real man truly is.
First, a male who knows who he is, what he has, where he’s going and recognizes the power that he has, is rightly referred to as a man, otherwise he is a boy or for the sake of his age, a guy. A man is one who sets the rules and makes things happen, not just for himself but for those around him. This one wields his influence in a trusty manner because he is accountable and knows that manhood is about responsibility. He’s in no way perfect but he puts his best into getting things done and there’s no dilly-dally or uncertainty in his pursuits and efforts (even if he is unsure). He is still learning and trying to be better, he’s original and rightly so - HE is a man.
Only such males are eligible for marriage and fatherhood (Ladies back me up on this one). And guys should try and aspire to be at least that. The world is starved of ideals, yes, but there are diamonds in the rough out there. And with time they’ll sparkle. We don’t want no machines in here, but we don’t want no fakes either.
Be brave. Man up!
