Emotions. 

That's it, that's the word. 

When you read it, how did it make you feel? Slightly off center? Did you shift a little in your seat? Did you roll your eyes? 

As much as you try not to feel any that aren't lead with testosterone, you still have them, all of them. As much as this society crams down your throat that you are to NOT feel them and if you do, you're weak...I still want you to know they matter. You matter. Your mental health MATTERS. 

I know it is a taboo topic of our men being human and feeling their feelings but at the end of the day, it is important to filter through them. It is okay to, heavy lift them if you will, so you can set them down. 

Anyway, for June, which is surrounded by pride, men's mental health, and Father's Day, please love on the men around you a little more this month. Let them put the heavy weight down, just for a moment. Let them catch their breath & remind them, they are more than what they can offer society, they matter more than what they can provide in their home. Trust me on this when I say, let them know, they...all of them, matter.  

All my gratitude,

Shay
