Says a Father to his Son

My son, though you are a young lad at this point in time, there are things that I must mention to help secure you as a man. There is a long process in becoming a man and those that take up the challenge are the ones who will ultimately reach this plateau. There is no time table you need to follow, no exact plan on the makings of one, you will know when you know. Though you might think you have fallen short of this goal, don’t fear because the process is much too long. For, remember these words that I give you are those that were given to me only to help in the growing process of the next.
Says a Father to his Son

In our Society the word soft is commonly used among the masses in describing what or who is a man; and the definition that I explain to you is simple but exact;

S is for support of your family and, the self awareness of you. O is for the opportunities that you must choose to further yourself on this journey. F is for the fearlessness in taking on the obstacles that will befall you, and to be faithful to your cause. T is for being ever so tolerant for those that may not believe in you.
Says a Father to his Son

My son so wear your heart on your sleeve and cry when you need too; flushing that disdain you feel at your most vulnerable time. For kindness and compassion is not your weakness, but your strength. You should wield it like a badge of honor, because you my son are now set on the path of becoming a MAN.
