No Homo?
As men, I don't believe we use the phrase "I love you" enough. When was the last time you told your father you love him? Or your brother? I think we often assume that its just understood. He knows...right?
It seems that within our culture there is a mold which we all must fill to be considered masculine. Real men don't cry. Real men don't get emotional. Real men are tough...and the list could go on. But we're human. And there are times when we do these things that society considers feminine. Telling another man "I love you" falls into this category. We don't talk to each other about these types of feelings!
If a man in your life were to die today, would you be at peace assuming that he knew you loved him, although you never said it? Would you hold your tears because thats not something men do? Or would you wish for the opportunity to have told him while he could have heard your voice?
Don't hesitate to take the time to tell the people you care about that you love them. Life is too short.

ReplyDeleteThank you for the remiendar

ReplyDeleteThis is so true. I wish we lived in a society that allowed men to be more forthcoming about their feelings... I have a feeling we would have less men in jail.
