Dear Men, Have you ever been told these words or uttered them yourself??? ~Quit your crying. ~Quit acting like a sissy. ~You wanna cry? I’ll give you a reason to cry… ~Don’t be such a baby. ~Suck it up. ~Big boys don’t cry. ~You’re fine. (even when you weren’t) or ~It’s not that bad […]
I just got off the ride. And I’m finding my new legs. Standing firmly on faith. A little wobbly in my ability to focus on what is before me now which is nothing. A blank canvas. A fresh start. A clean slate. No longer chasing the dream. No more running away from or towards those […]
