Being A Man: A List

Here follows a list of what I feel it is to be a man.

• A man must break a heart, to truly understand the fragility of the lives he involves himself in
• A man must have his heart broken, to truly understand his own fragility
• At least once in his life, a man must fully immerse himself in a sacrificial love
• A man must have a war against an opposite for without this it is impossible to assert who he is
• A man provides
• A man recognises who is really in charge
• A man knows when to be a man and when to be human
• A man must find a love he is willing to die with or for
