soon to halo the maples again.
I will happily freeze in the bone-cracking cold, just to watch you
walk slowly through this sugarbush, rare as a sundog
incandescent in a fog of softly falling snow.
On this cross-quarter day, quick to temper and cool,

Men,
A business is a SPIRITUAL OBLIGATION.
It is a burning desire deep your inner spiritual sanctum.

Men,
A man's haircut should be simple and straightforward.
NOT sophisticated, complicated, convoluted and chaotic.
Be modest and minimalistic.
A man thrives in minimalism.
#MasculinitySaturday
Men,
When in the barbershop for a haircut,

Avoid massages. They are an insult to your masculinity.
Most massage shops are brothels.
Respect yourself.

Men,

Do you have a fallback plan?
Stop sitting pretty in employment,
Diversify your portfolio.
Don't wait,
Start!
