What it means to be a Man!

Watched a movie about the Crips and the Bloods, LA Gangs, tonight. Alot of talk about what it means to be a man. And much of it came from youths that did not have fathers in their lives. Like many young men, both poor and even middle class, in the south suburbs of Chicago. So very thankful that my Father gave me so many lessons in being a real man, not having kids, or committing violence, but in particular caring for someone at much personal sacrifice. And not doing it for any other reason than there was no other way to deal with the situation. Thanks Dad, for showing me what it means to be a real man, and so many other things. Love you and miss you and Mom so much.
