i noticed that fathers day is coming up, so i wanted to thank mine for his efforts. here is a poem for him:
My dad stood by my side last night,
as I sat in my chair.
No, I did not see him,
but I knew that he was there.
My dad, he was a quiet man.
he never said a lot.
But he could always let you know
exactly what he thought.
The tears we always noticed,
when he kneeled to pray,
told us how he loved the Lord,
much more than words could say.
He always stayed with Mamma,
it did not matter where.
Even when the times got tough,
that showed his love was there.
He worked so hard, so long each day,
to grow his family right.
He didn't have much time with us,
but he saw us every night.
He might not have understood his kids,
dad's very seldom do.
But he loved them all the same,
that message spilled right through.
From my heart, I asked my Dad,
"Am I doing it ok?"
I felt him answer, sadly,
"Only God can say..."
yes, Dad and I shared time last night,
and in our silent prayer,
we felt the greatest Father
come to join us there
His Presense grew around us,
A blessing in the night.
And this was His message:
"You've both done alright."

"It's my ex-wife's birthday today so I got up early and brought flowers and cards and a gift over for the kids to give her and helped them make her breakfast. Per usual someone asked me why the hell I still do things for her all the time. This annoys me. So ima break it down for you all.
I'm raising two little men. The example I set for how I treat their mom is going to significantly shape how they see and treat women and affect their perception of relationships. I think even more so in my case because we are divorced. So if you aren't modeling good relationship behavior for your kids, get your shit together. Rise above it and be an example. This is bigger than you.
Raise good men. Raise strong women. Please. The world needs them, now more than ever."
