I’m not going to dive into this shit too deep, but if you’re a man, just… be a man.
Meaning: #1 Take responsibility. That’s what being a Man is all about. For success, for failures.
Protect the ones you love. Their thoughts, their feelings. Their safety. Protect what you’re responsible for. See #1 if that doesn’t make any sense.
Listen; Your wife is smarter than you are, most times. She can sense a thing, before you even know that it’s coming. Yeah, listen to her. Sometimes she doesn’t know what she’s talking about, but her instincts are always good. Like, Always.
Your job is to protect the family, and to get them moving forward. Your wifes job is make shit right. You can rest assured she will.
Be honest. Be ethical. Ethics an honesty supersede everything. It’s what people look back on, and honor; Exactly what you want.
Also: Grand kids are effing awesome. It’s a chance to sit back, and see what you taught, and then see how it worked. If you did it right, the apple really doesn’t fall far from the tree. Maybe a chance for you to adjust as well, who knows.
Just, be a Man.
