27/30 Today I am thankful for my parents. God/bad, Right/Wrong, without these 2 there would be no me, & I love me! Over my half a century I've seen a lot of, out of place stuff. These are just my observations, No Judgement, I have not the authority for that. I've seen men disrespect & degrade women & not deserve the right to be around, to my disgrace I've even been that man in some situations & in some ways. But in 20 years of mentoring I've seen good men beat down, denied rights to their children, & seen children ransomed for more money. When at the end of the day good or bad, love or loathed you get one set of parents. People when one parent vilify the other you start the deplorable cycle of self hate. I've seen sons taught to hate father's which can sometimes mutate to hating all men which is self hate, or it back fires because all mom says bad about dad don't fit & makes them love Dad more & now they hate women for being manipulative. I've seen absentee father's not show that Dads are daughter's first love & 1st example of How a man loves a women in a healthy way, which leads some women to hate & not trust men, or see them only as an ATM & or codependent. And the Damage of a young man growing up fatherless, as a man it's heartbreaking to see all the cold, hard hearted males, or the dollar store "cotton soft" ones. Willie Lynch is alive & well we perpetually prepare people to live in/with brokenness. I made a choice that I wouldn't do that to my kids or grandkids, I have no in laws I have family, I may not speak to all Family That's about my Peace but I don't have to hate or trash talk(anymore). I have no Heaven or Hell to place not one soul. So this day I am Grateful to Honor My Father & Mother to receive all The Most High has Promised. Honor your father and mother, which is the first commandment with a promise, Ephesians 6:2 HCSB #ElliottTribe #CoChiller4Liffe #1stBornSon✊🏿 #WhatTheDevilMeant4EvilYahMeant4MYGOOD #SpiritualMaturity01 (at Co'Chillers Enterprise) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5X_BEDBRdie-VIkLE9AUqueZJ8EWJaMuS96MY0/?igshid=10g09sz8qzpw1
