Being a man is knowing where you are needed most

To swallow your fear and stand proud

A lack of guidance gives a misguided belief

your journey will thrust you forth into lessons

♂ 

Define what being a man is, 

You don’t always have to be the protector

Even with a natural willingness

Being a man is knowing where you are needed most 

Allow yourself to be vulnerable

In the face of struggle 

A man isn’t meant to show how he feels

persevere through feelings of weakness and unimportance  

Feeling lower then Others 

To have versatility and creativity 

Show subtle kindness and understanding

To be strong caring loving and warm

Being a man is knowing where you are needed most

Use your intellect care and humor 

Admit your failures 

Masculinity comes in different forms

Being a man is knowing where your needed the most 

A man of the tribe doesn’t know his emotion 

Allow yourself to feel and to be open

Learn that emotion isn’t weakness its courage
