Something to chew on today…
There is a huge difference between being a savage and being a villain. But it’s a fine line to walk. Be savage, when a savage is needed. Be savage in defense of your family, your marriage of God and your faith, in defense of the defenseless, and be a savage to protect your friends.
A warriors duty is to protect the good in life, not just create chaos and destruction for the sake of some misguided feelings.
Being a gentleman is not weakness but rather one of the most savage thing a man can do, to be able to be dangerous without being a threatening villain, to uphold the good even when you are feeling like a monster inside.
It’s taken me many years to leash my demon and I know what the consequences to myself and others are if I don’t. So I work hard each day to be better than I was yesterday and keep that demon leashed until it absolutely has to be set free.
Don’t make excuses for bad behavior, lack of integrity and toxic attitudes by calling it savage.
It all starts with God.
Sit with the warriors. The conversation is different.
