The boundless love a parent has for their child is matched only by their capacity to embarrass them.
Confidence baby
I was the most insecure person. I went through a lot of mistreatment and abuse. But through tough times and understanding my worth, I became confident. Now, I won't do anything that doesn't benefit me. I prioritize myself, and even my family has noticed the change.

Family Values
I lost my uncle Fred last week on December 14th. He was the last surviving sibling of my mother’s. Mom was one of 7 children and the baby of the 4 girls born before 3 boys. Mom passed 11 years ago December 11th. My grandfather passed on the same date 19 years prior. I’m sure there is some meaning to that. I don’t believe there are coincidences in the universe.

I am not these Diseases
The school nurse brought my dad, who was a teacher at the parochial school I attended, into the nurse's office. There was a female classmate of mine in the nurse's office too. She was skinny too. I found out later that she suffered from anorexia. I was slouching in a chair nearby; tired, hungry, and thirsty. "Mr. Fox," the school nurse said, "You need to take your daughter to a doctor right away." My father didn't say anything, as a child of a physically and verbally abusive alcoholic father, he didn't usually react strongly or quickly to much in life. It was safer to stay in the shadows, but in the bright lights of her office, there was no where for him to hide.

The Warm Man in Contrast to the Cool Ideal
For roughly 80 years, the thought of what a man ought to be like has been vigorously affected by cool. The cast of enticingly cool figures incorporates Humphrey Bogart, Jean-Paul Belmondo, Marcello Mastroianni, James Dean, Steve McQueen, Bob Dylan, Ryan Gosling, and Benedict Cumberbatch. The cool man doesn't make a respectable attempt. You don't see them wallowing about in a frenzy, yet they succeed at any rate. They are truly certain; they can downsize a mountain or walk an abandoned road around midnight. Assuming that they need to kill somebody, they'll do it conveniently with minimal quarrel. They don't stress. They're independent and secure with themselves. Their pants are consistently an ideal fit. They communicate their thoughts momentarily, yet their words are dependably to the point. They're not submissive in that frame of mind of power, but rather they don't pine for influence themselves. They are free. The fundamental quality of the cool man is an air of safety, all around dealt with, practically no appearance of or gloating.
