RECEIVING AFFIRMATION
My brothers: When we cannot receive love and affirmation from each otherโwe will never be able to attain the healing we so desperately desire. Living in a state of heartache, wearies the soul and takes the life out of living. I know this pain so well, which is why Iย #CryLikeAManย daily until we can collectively heal and be whole.ย
Never Take The Detour

ALLOW YOURSELF TO HAVE WEAK MOMENTS INSTEAD OF A WEAK MINDSET
Brother Devon, I too allowed misconstrued masculinity hinder my expression of love for my daughter. I will never forget when she slammed her finger in my car door at 8 years old. She showed no emotion to the pain because at that time in my life, I didnโt know how to #CryLikeAManโI just a male defined only by masculine attributes.
Deal With Yourself
The hardest thing for a man to do is deal with himselfโintrospectively confront his own emotional pain and trauma, so that he can stop unjustly inflicting it on others.

Have a break!
