Ode to Adam

75. Do Something for Someone on Valentine's Day

I seem to catch myself wondering alot about this relationship thing these days. It really is so complex but, I'm sure by the time I've over thought this from every conceivable angle, it will be so simple.

So for Valentine's Day my sister and I decided to invite two awesome friends to watch local band Just Jinjer with us. Nothing funny, just some good tunes. In my mind I remember thinking this as a way of honouring two outstanding examples of men. Men of dignity and respect, honour, valour, direction and strength.

Often I breathe thankful that my past experience of men no longer dictate my present and future interactions with them. There are good men in the world, there are men who are willing to stand for truth and honour. Unselfish, compassionate, trustworthy men do still exist.It encourages me to know there are other men besides my dad that I can trust and rely on.

Udo and Eddie are examples of men grounded in their identity, who choose their battles wisely, and once chosen, courageously fight to protect the honour of both the men and women around them.
