I've come to realize that along with my child-like, playful and happy-go-lucky persona, there's this part of me that's raw, vulnerable and afraid.
I've been taught that a real man shouldn't show his feelings, because when he does, that reveals a sign of weakness and others will immediately take advantage of him.
Now, I disagree with that belief. A real man is one who accepts himself as a whole, including his emotional and vulnerable side. Why? Because it takes courage.
The whole is greater than the sum of it's parts. I've now found that part in my life that was always missing and it's been inside me all along...I was just too afraid to acknowledge it.
It's my honor to share my growth with you as I invite you into the most personal and touching moments of my life. I do it because I love you...and I trust the people I love. I love you
