“A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others have thrown at him.”

Soapbox Rant:
There is a crisis in this country and in others, where young men feel isolated and are unsure of their place in society.
This predicament is not CAUSED by women, but rather by a overarching sentiment that men are basically near-Neanderthals, and that traditionally male jobs/roles have evolved, without men being taught how to cope.
And everything that's wrong with the government, the legal systems, the fact that automotive companies MUST make vehicles that can drive themselves because humans are too dumb to do it without crashing, IS NOT the fault of men.
WE...together, arm in arm, of all skin colors and backgrounds, EVERY gender, are in charge.
We really are, yet we're being lead down a path because older generations taught us to respect authorities which often do NOT have our best interests in mind.
It's time to shed the chains of traditions, and "we've done it this way for generations!"
Helping our neighbors, buying from small and local businesses, recycling, doing unpolluting things, are HUMAN TRAITS, and for the benefit of ourselves, the flora and fauna, and our planet.
It's going to be difficult, yet the end result is everything.
HE/SHE/THEY: Let's work together!
Peace ~ Love ~ Earth
