"Hey Man"

David Bowie lyrics run thru my head,Torrie and I are out and about meeting with Insurance agents and doing errands we always seem to be doing errands, life I guess.

As I was getting dressed today I found myself dressed all in Black, my mood was not a dark one I just found myself dressed in Black.

Even the band on my $5.00 Walmart Roman Numeral Round "Never goes out of style watch face Black.

This prompted me to think What is a Man?

As I got dressed this morning (Torrie who feels the need to dance in our master bath) dancing to The Eagles (daddy's music) stops.... Leans forward and states "Daddy you smell good!" This makes me smile, she then adds Daddy you are Handsome. I smile what a gift this then reminds me of when her two older sisters would conduct a fashion inspection of me before we would leave so I would not embarrass them in my choice of clothing.

I started as a lump of coal however I have always been under pressure, and when coal is under pressure it becomes a Diamond.

As we sit in the parking lot of Target I thought about how eclectic I am and how uncomfortable some of the people I know are of me because I am my own person and a Man comfortable in his own skin, this brought me to "labels' and how people feel a need to Label others and God forbid if you for one day digress from that label.

As of late I have come to grips with who I am.
I'm' Happy who I am even if you don't get me. It's choice, and I am Okay with It.

As Sheryl and I drifted off to sleep me drifting her reading I said.....

"Honey, I've been thinking about a "Harley Davidson Skull Belt Buckle or a Skull and Cross bones a Belt buckle that screams Rock & Roll.

Her reply..... "You can probably get one at the Flea Market".

Yeah I was thinking of it maybe we can go today, I know I'm weird.

Sheryl Replies...."That's what I Love about You!"
