Antediluvian Man

I am mid-stream in learning how to be a human.

I am a middle aged man who has lived with blinders on. Historically I’ve thought of myself as an open minded, kind and loving man. After years of mishandling situations at work and at home I have realized how myopic I have been. I am certainly not the worst man on the planet… but that doesn’t excuse the mistakes I have made and the hurt I have put out into the world.

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing”

Often attributed to Edmund Burke, but truly Unknown

I have let evil triumph… and often I have committed the evil itself. Lack of respect. Lack of self control and self regulation. Reactions… which are really just me letting myself off the hook for my own lack of self control. This is what this will be about. I will dump my thoughts, feelings, entitlements, and beliefs here as a way to reflect and truly see who I am… so I can become a good human for myself, my family, my community and on and on.

Hope this can be of use for other men out there who are struggling and can’t really figure out the specific “why”. You are not alone. There are a lot of us out there.
