    This isn’t real life. You gotta have people who support your dreams but also good friends who you can have fun and let off steam with and not be so serious. Not every good friend could be on the same trajectory as you are. Stay loyal.

When u mentioned that your wife asked u if you love her and challenged you to get your GED, I cried because I remembered my ex bf challenged me to get my permit. Cried but I did it and got my license at that time. But most of all I noticed that right now the ppl in my life I have very few who are not Kingdom people in my life. Or just good friends to push me to purpose. I got a couple who act like they want to be around me but don’t. So they flaky. I’m focusing on me. God bless u ET!🙏🏽

      Challenge yourself with some ideas about manhood, explore your masculine potential to the maximum and become the kind of man you would admire.
      We can only better ourselves together, as men among men, so I invite you to use what I share and, of course, share your own opinions so that others can benefit from them as well.
      Looking forward to your points of view.
      All the best to you!
