A man


       What is the capacity of a man measured in, from time to time we lose sight of what it means to be a man, we get lost in what we want and not what should be? See I can be a soldier, I can be a philanthropist, I could be a networking genius, and all that glitters is gold, but is that what makes me a man. Now, I have layed up in my bed and contemplate where do I thread in this grand quilt of life, and after years of contemplation I have come to this conclusion.
    To be a man worth on,  grand halls of leadership, one must first, follow so one day when he does lead; he has essential knowledge of those who are following him. So being a leader makes a man.
    To be a man of worth one must provide, but this provision that is provided is not for one to gorge but to satisfy. Se when a man empties his cup, for those around him seeking nourishment, he gives an enough to sustain them and leave enough to sustain himself.
     To be a man of worth one must be the balance, being the balance is the most defiant thing a man can do, in a universe that by nature is chaotic. Walk into a room of gossip mongering, and all your silence cut through the air like the razor blade.
     Finally, to be a man you must discipline dissonance. It is true that by the time your body will grow and mature into manhood, and while everyone is physically growing, most remain spiritually adolescent. See it is easy to feel, one's body maturing as boys go into puberty we experience growing pains, and we grow no matter what this pain is inescapable but what of the pains of a maturing mind.
