I am a man
I am a father
I am a man
And as a man I am strong I am powerful I am knowing of my own manliness
When I rise each day I am sure of whom I am
I know what I can become
I know my strength
I understand my understanding
I feel my needs
I know my wants
I know as a man I must know myself
Only then can I know other
I know as a man I must love myself
Only then can I love others
I know as a man life starts with myself
When my day begins I am in control
When my day ends I am in control
I am the power of my own manliness
No one else
No one thing
Nothing
I am a man
Being a father is just one thing I can become
I am a man
I am a father
Yet am I to expect the adulation of my creation through a day that has been created by another man as a commercial myth?
Am I expected to expect anything from my on creation on a day that means nothing to this man?
I have discovered my senses
I know my manliness
I know my humanity
I know what it takes to be a man
I know what it takes to make this man happy
It isn’t the manufactured nothingness but the reality of what is inside me
What is inside comes out
When it comes out it has an effect
The effect reveals itself in a reaction
The reaction reveals only the inside of the reactor
So today in a world of expectation and the myth of living the dream created by others
It is critical
It is important
It is essential that you be the man you were always created to become
Reveal the man that you can easily reveal
And then
If you are a father regardless of the actions of others never forget
You are loved
You are needed
You are wanted
You are dreamed over
Something is thinking about you right now
It might now be the way you see
It might not be the way you expect
It might now arrive the way you want it to arrive
You might be a father
But
Never forget
You are always first and foremost
