“It is easy in the world to live after the world’s opinions; it is easy in solitude to
live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps
with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude”.

board Did you ever want to be a man?’ Alice smiled a little, took a sip of her drink and thought about it. Did she ever want to be a man? ‘I don’t think so. I think I was fine with being a girl because of Pippi Longstocking. I could relate to her. She made it possible for me to be a girl. But being a woman or a wife or a mother never appealed to me, and it doesn’t really make sense to me either. Yet, I don’t think wanting-to-be-a-man ever crossed my mind. Though I usually relate to male characters in stories, like Sinbad, Ali Baba, Da Vinci, Cicero or Aragon. But then, maybe I haven’t read enough books or seen enough movies. Though, now that I come to think of it, being a Christian would have been more fun as a man, I think. A woman was only good enough to serve a man, but as a man you got to do real things, so to speak.’ ‘Like tyrannising others about how to live?’ ‘Yeah. A woman was only allowed to tyrannise young children — and other women.’ ‘Unbelievable.’ ‘If only it were just a story. But here’s a funny thing. I do have one other positive female image in my mind. And that’s the image of an old, deeply wrinkled, white haired and foremost very wise woman. She is very beautiful in every respect: mind, body and soul. That’s an image I could be comfortable with.’ ‘In the far future?’ Alice laughed. ‘Yeah. I’d give it another four to five decades and heaps of still deeply buried wisdom.’

Get out of the house.
Take risk and be willing to feel like an imposter. This is a key to professional success—and masculinity.
Acknowledge your blessings—and create opportunities for others. Be of surplus value.
Be kind. That’s the secret to success in relationships.

Some of these lessons include:
Being a good dad means being good to their mother.
Action absorbs anxiety.
Find what you’re good at—follow your talent.

A #creativeman is motivated by the #desiretoachieve not the desire to #beatothers
#beingmale is a matter of birth, #beingaMAN is
a matter of age, but #beingagentleman
is a #matterofchoice
Let a man's character be his currency; that will tell
you what he's worth!
