Work was cancelled today due to snow & freezing rain, so I am taking advantage of this time off to catch up with my reading. I will probably finish “Manhood” by the end of the day. It‘s a great read for a snowy, icy afternoon.

I can not believe I read this in two days, I was blown away.
He is extremely humble and honest, He shows what the meaning of a being a man really is.
He is very grounded and had a relatable hard childhood.
He fought for everything he has and I really respect that.
