Help for Parents

Why?


I’m not sure how long this blog might last for.  My enthusiasm might wain after a little while, maybe not (I’d probably bet on the first though).  But I thought I might share with the world my views on growing into being a man, a parent, a soulmate, and the my ever increasing awareness that all is not what it seems.

I’m not sure how many men in the world are that keen for some of their most heartfelt thoughts and feelings to be shared.  But I do feel in general, men struggle with being open with their partner, their friends, and the world.  I don’t feel that God intended for men to be ‘strong’, and ‘tough’.  On the contrary, I feel that God wants men to know that at their core, they are soft, caring, loving, that they have nothing to prove to themselves or anyone else.

Men seem to be so afraid of recognising themselves.  I cannot say that I know myself, but I do know more than I did a few years ago, but the journey is early days.

I have started this blog in the hope that if I can share myself with world, then someone else may feel a little more comfortable sharing themselves with the world, their friends, or their partner.  If I can help men to open themselves, and not be so afraid to express what it is their heart, then that makes the world just a little nicer.

Take Care
