			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I had a conversation last night that ROCKED MY WORLD! It wasn&#8217;t some deep super spiritual theological geeky conversation, but one that was man to man, heart to heart! It was this conversation that has sparked this post &#038; several others I plan to write this week. Please, if you are married, single with hopes of being married, have a son or sons or have a father that you care greatly about allow them the comfort or discomfort of reading this &#038; subsequent posts. Encourage it, I&#8217;m begging you!</p>
<p>MEN, we are both emotionally retarded &#038; constipated! Yes, I said it &#038; I mean it! Ok, maybe not you, because you have it ALL together, but the rest of us are!!</p>
<p>Do you cry? Do you feel like you can never be &#8220;weak&#8221; in front of the people you love? Do you dodge going home because you can&#8217;t take it? Do you find solace in a bottle or puffing on something? Do you have anger issues?Do you feel like the walls are closing in on you, yet you don&#8217;t say anything because you are afraid of what others might think or say?</p>
<p>I could go on with questions &#038; examples for hours, but here is one of the most important&#8230; ARE YOU AFRAID OF BEING VULNERABLE? Even with your wife or your children?</p>
<p>I hope in my posts this week to share, be transparent with you. I hope that in doing this, someone may find freedom in going home &#038; releasing the weight of being emotionally constipated! I&#8217;m hoping this series is the laxative you needed to BE FREE!</p>
<p>Being a MAN does not require you to be emotionally inadequate!! The boys, young men, the daughters, wives, women in your life NEED YOU!!  </p>
