Telling others of a struggle isn't generally for the purpose of mere sympathy. Sympathy is feeling sorry for someone, while compassion goes a step further by actively supporting them to help alleviate that suffering....and everyone needs compassion when they are struggling. No human was designed to do life alone.
If you are a man battling depression or suicidal thoughts, or just not coping in whatever way, please know that you are not 'less masculine' for telling someone trustworthy and seeking help, prayer, encouragement and counsel. You are being WISE. Please seek support from compassionate people who genuinely love you and care about you. Don't fight alone. Warriors are stronger with fellow men championing them and battling alongside them. Honesty and humility is one of the most courageous masculine things a man can do. Real men give love and also need love. Real men do battle and real men also bleed and weep.
@DearS_o_n Waiting 5 seconds before answering the phone is just a cheap manipulation tactic.
Either you're too busy to answer instantly or you're not.
Playing pretend is gay.
Also: who says no to free lunch?
I get a haircut every 2 months. 2 weeks is pretty aggressive. I’m not a believer in “dress for success”. I dressed in a suit at 18 selling real estate and all it did was inflate my ego and develop me into a cocky individual. Had to kill the ego and learn to be humble, life taught me.
Zlatan Ibrahimović's brutal one-liners to every nation's World Cup elimination 🗣️😂:
🇺🇸 "USA is out. So your American dream is over. Next time, call it football, not soccer, okay?"
🇵🇹 "Portugal? Almost. But almost is not enough."
🇲🇽 "Mexico? Enjoy your tacos. Amigos, adiós."
🇧🇷 "Brazil? You're out. The samba continues in Brazil. See you next time."
🇸🇪 "Sweden? I told you. There is no new Zlatan. You're out."
🇩🇪 "Germany? It's over. Now you can drink sad beers."
Mo salah was just being so nice in today's match, th coach should have taken him off instead of th guy that scored th second goal, Egypt lost th match of him
Not every room deserves your voice.
Mountains don't argue with the wind. They stand.
The more you compete for attention, the less you command.
Choose stillness over performance.
Distance isn't coldness. It's discipline.
Thinking out loud! 💭
When you say you’re going to keep your mouth shut, you need to have the integrity and loyalty to actually do it.
Since my early 20s, some of my friends have called me “The Vault” because they knew I could keep a secret. Sometimes, the most important thing isn’t telling the truth to everyone, it’s understanding that some things are better left unsaid because revealing them can damage trust and social cohesion.
I’ve never let fear, anger, or any other emotion make my decisions for me. Neither should you. 🙏🏼
Gross. Everyone should have the freedom to do what they want, but we should also have the freedom for it to not be shoved down our throats. I couldn't care less who you sleep with or if you identify as a cat. Work, pay your bills, be a good human to others. That's it. The rest, keep to yourself.
@Olami2113631@MkoTheComedian A lot Nigerians bro
This guys ain't talking down peller, he's just trying to make a point there but omo Nigerians and the way they understand things
🚨🗣️NEW: Balotelli reacts to Djed Spence refusing to shake Thomas Partey’s hand before Ghana and England kick-off:
“Funny world, isn’t it? The white players lined up and shook Partey’s hand, but the black player decides he’s the one who can’t? If that’s a statement, then explain the statement. If it’s personal, say it’s personal. Don’t hide behind silence and let people write the story for you.
Football is a mirror: sometimes it reflects unity, sometimes it exposes hypocrisy. A handshake costs nothing, but refusing one can cost a thousand explanations. Everyone will rush to make this about race, others will swear it’s about principles, and the truth will drown somewhere in the noise.
If you snub a man publicly, don’t be surprised when the public turns it into a courtroom. One skipped handshake has created more headlines than ninety minutes of football. That’s the modern game: a gesture becomes a grenade, and social media pulls the pin.”
@winexviv There’s nothing you cannot achieve as a human if you want it badly enough and can separate yourself from all negative influences. I’ve always known this, and it works. Well done 👏
