I believe that beauty is love in the face of anger. I believe that beauty is recognizing the bigger picture and understanding how when we relate to the people we love kindly - even when we’re mad, we create trust, security, and trauma resilience. It is in these small private spaces, the ones that seem tiny on the global stage, that we can change the world.

Watching a video where a husband avoided conflict by walking away from a potentially volatile situation involving a belligerent individual, possibly intoxicated, who had harmed his wife, made me ponder. I shared the video with my wife and asked for her opinion on whether it would be appropriate to handle a situation similarly to how the husband did. My wife responded affirmatively, indicating that she believed it was acceptable. Many men make rash decisions driven by emotions, often without considering the long-term consequences of their actions. A true measure of manhood is not engaging in needless confrontation. Making thoughtful, strategic decisions and considering the bigger picture is always beneficial. Ultimately, it's simply not worth it. In reality, I was already leaning towards the same decision, but I wanted to gauge my wife's thoughts and feelings on the matter. My instinct would have been to remove my wife from such a situation entirely, thus preventing any harm to either of us, especially considering we are nearing our retirement years. As we age, our priorities shift, and our focus should be on our well-being and safety. It's essential to evaluate the situation and make the right decision, even if it means walking away. Remember, it's not worth the risk or trouble.
Nick Huber on Instagram: "Several years ago I was at a bar with my wife in Boston at about 10pm. Belligerent guy elbows her in the back and almost pushes her over because she got too close while trying to flag down a bartender. He just stands there and looks me right in the eye, wanting a fight. What did I do? I grab her hand and we get the hell out of there. Sometimes being a man means walking yo

Three words, all truth. I know it can be so easy to see these types of slogans and think nothing of them, but make it your priority to say them loud enough, to yourself, to friends, to family, to those you might not speak to everyday. It's so easy to be kind and caring in a world that can be so frightening at times. You. Are. Enough. Be proud of how far you have come, never look back, you are going forwards, one step at a time. #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek

💡💡Shoutout to everyone kicking off November feeling alright 💡💡 As we start another Movember, we have an opportunity to focus on men’s health—especially men’s mental health. Brené Brown, a researcher known for her work on vulnerability, once shared a story where a man told her that his wife and daughters would rather see him “die on his white horse than fall off of it.” This simple sentence holds so much meaning, and I’d like to unpack it from my own perspective. If we look at data from WHO, the APA, and other trusted sources: 💀 Men experience higher death rates across various areas, from workplace fatalities to military-related deaths and suicide. 🥹 Depression, while diagnosed more often in women, is likely underreported in men, who may face barriers to seeking help due to cultural stigma. Men also exhibit different depression symptoms, such as irritability, aggression, or risk-taking behavior, which often go unnoticed. 🪦 Tragically, untreated and unrecognized depression in men can escalate to severe outcomes, contributing to the high suicide rates. Showing vulnerability as a man is challenging. Society often rewards traits associated with "strength" or "stoic resilience," which can prevent men from seeking support. Many behaviors criticized as “toxic masculinity” stem from the same place where society defines what it means to be successful, “alpha,” or “fit for purpose.” In my view, these pressures lie at the heart of many challenges men face. They sometimes lead to negative outcomes, from unhealthy workplace cultures to violence. ☀️ So, if you're feeling alright and want to connect over coffee, just DM me. We don’t have to navigate this alone. ☀️ #Movember #MensHealth #MentalHealthMatters #EndTheStigma #Vulnerability https://lnkd.in/dJzja_Gj
I'm alright too brother!

This afternoon, as I sat watching everyone entering the chapel. I saw a young mother carrying her small baby walk past, one of the booties fell from the child's foot unbeknownst to the mother. Me, being the people watcher I am and I love to study behaviors, decided to hold back and watch how each person would react or even notice. Immediately a few people saw the article and passed it by, one even adjusted their gate to avoid stepping on it. One woman pointed it out and loudly exclaimed, "Someone lost their shoe," but made no effort to pick it up and past over it. Many didn't notice even after stepping on it. Finally, the father of the child recognized the booty and stooped down and collected it as he entered to join his family for the services. As I pondered what I witnessed, my thoughts were turned to who are we in life's experiences. I understand that we are not the same in every situation but we have a choice to how we will respond and what role we choose to play. Will we be the person that holds back and watches? Perhaps the many that were unaware of their surroundings and the events unfolding or those who noticed but didn't care or even causing more harm? What about those who point out fault or the problem but quickly avoid the solution and fail to help, expecting others to fix or deal with it. Maybe even the young mother or the child that kicked the shoe off? When we decide how we will act before the situation, we are more likely to respond in the way we desire. #AddToYourTools
