[cat-eye-nebula]

A good man is judged by his actions, what he does or fails to do. A good man is honest, steps up, works hard, produces more than he consumes and provides for others. He is self-sacrificing. He stands for truth and defends women, children and the little guy. He is never a bully. A bad man is the opposite of all of these.

4 Male Archetypes within each of us

Here comes the King

[sunshinemoonlightandstarbright]

I started thinking

I am a mural of my actions

there isn't a part of me that isn't tied into someone else

fragmented ceramic with string connected to each shard

who am I without others?

when you tug on the strings, the mural shatters

nothing left

soldier, poet, king

which archetype are you?

pushed into responsibility

all I do, I do for praise

my inherent value dependent on external force

look at this thing I made

watch me do this

can you do what I can do?

on all fours, I'm a stool for your feet

yeah no worries

all good

don't worry about it

yeah I'm fine

she'll be right

I've got it

of course I can do that for you

here, just let me break my bones and sever my limbs for you

do you need a shoulder to cry on?

I'll cut it off for you to use as a pillow

do you need a second set of eyes?

I'll take a teaspoon to my face and gouge

do you you need a hand?

here, have mine

severed at the wrist with flesh hanging off in chunks

I'll hold your hair back, caress your face, brush your teeth, itch your back

say the word

I'm everyone's but my own.
