Inspiration and hope for the future!
The following was posted by a young gentleman(18-21 age bracket) on a social network where I have a presence:
I believe men are protectors. As men we are given strength to stand for what we believe. We are given a physical nature that can be used to protect and love or destroy. I want to leave a legacy of people who I helped, of people I guarded from harm. I want to be a man who loves deeply and truly. Who is not afraid to display weakness, but knows he is strong. I want to be a man that proves my masculinity by being gentle and respectful to women. Who proves my heritage by making her feel safe in my arms and comforted by my touch. I want to make her quiver and tingle in the most innocent and wonderful ways. I will demonstrate my strength by standing up for the weak. By speaking kindly when I don't want to. By listening to both sides of the story.
I want to be a sheepdog, and the very best version of myself. I want to continually grow and learn. I desire knowledge and a level head. I want to be the person who remains calm and collected when the world around me is tangled in flames and in chaos.
As I told him, it is a joy to see these words, especially coming from a member of the rising generation. It gives me hope for the future!
