Real Man, Free Man is a new way of being a man. This new Real Man is a man who is willing to give and embrace EVERYTHING he’s got, and to tell the truth about it all. It has come out of my own attempt to live as a “real man” which led me to live the exact opposite of what I now am sharing as a new way of manhood. I have immersed myself in the depths of the “old way”, living through intense pain and depression, only to emerge from the ashes as a new man.
We all know what a “real man” is, right? Or used to be. The stoic, strong, firm-chinned, never complaining, breadwinning, ever composed, head-of-the-household patriarch, do your duty, fight-for-king-and-country kind of man. Being a “real man” was always a dull affair, never sensual, sexual, vivacious, spontaneous, wild, uncontrolled, playful, imaginative, foolish, the list goes on. The “real man” was never very real, in the sense that he could show the world who he truly was, mostly because he’d forgotten who he truly was, and he was never free! That man
Whether you’re a man yourself, or you’re a woman relating to men, do you feel and see that most men live as mere shadows of the Masculine Being they could be, and were meant to be? Do you see that most of us are so reigned-in and controlled it’s killing us slowly. Do you feel that hidden beneath those layers of polished behavior, cool facade, emotional suppression and fear of judgement, there is much more than you get to see?
Men, do you feel there is a different kind of man inside you somewhere? Do you feel that man that would stand up to the world for your truth, ravish your woman with your unbridled love and desire, play loudly and uninhibitedly with your children, walk proud through the world, and wake up every morning with an zealous appetite for all Life has to offer?
Women, don’t you know that your man has WAY MORE to offer you that what you’ve seen so far? Despite your love for him, don’t you have this deep knowing that if only he would express everything he is, the rest of the world would get to see him as you see him in your love? Don’t you want to yell at him: “Where the hell are you! Is anyone at home in there! I know you! I know you’re in there!” The question for you women is: Are you ready for your man to give you absolutely ALL OF HIMSELF? Or do you also feel safer with the domesticated, lukewarm man? Be aware, when you’ve been used to the shut-down, halfway-gone shadow of a man, it can be a frighteningly powerful experience to be faced with a Real Man!
