    When I was a kid my dad gave me a copy of the Lord of the Rings, and it took me until I was older to realize that Aragorn is basically the quintessential paragon of masculine virtue. If you’re ever wondering what a true man looks like, it’s basically that. Aragorn didn’t care about his riches or his power, or how many women he seduced. He cared about protecting the realms of those who could not protect themselves. He didn’t rush back to Gondor, but rather hung out near the Shire because the Shire had no defenses. He led men into battle when needed but was content to be alone if it meant fulfilling his mission in life. He was a skilled healer and healed wounds caused by the darkness of the Nazgûl because of his purity. Importantly when the elves felt the calling to leave Middle Earth because of the corruption and darkness of Mordor spreading into the land, Aragorns mortality and humanity allowed him to stay and face the darkness without being diminished by it.

    • @artemrevelsky
      @artemrevelsky 4 місяці тому +12

      Aragorn is basically a superhero. Tall, strong, gifted with almost unlimited lifespan with a noble Numenorian heritage. Not that relatable to be honest. The Count of Monte Cristo is a lot better model for a common man in my opinion of course.

      I'm glad that you're experiencing awesome results with prayer. Most people on the planet believe in some sort of deity. But in reality prayer doesn't do anything but convince oneself of something. It provides hope when one feels helpless but ultimately does nothing to change the trajectory of their lives. However, calculated plans and action is the only thing that impacts change.

    That story struck with me. I have recently become alone and I am worried that will happen to me. It sucks to just exist on your own. There really needs to be more communities and outreach for men who feel alone. I can literally spend days and days in my own home with just my dog without anyone checking up on me.
    Part of the reason I came to your channel in the first place. To make myself better so I can eventually find a partner and friends as my self esteem is pretty low at the moment.
    It's really horrible to not have a partner, friends and a family who are too busy with their own lives to truly make an effort to help you.

    Being a masculine man seems to be a bad thing in today's society.
    -Many women have told me that being a veteran is a deal breaker for dating.
    Being a responsible man from health to finances seems to be an unwanted trait, makes no sense at all.

      Sucks, but they're probably looking at rates of things like ptsd and deciding that they're not worth the trouble. I don't think that's a rejection of masculine men as much as it is a rejection of men who might have legitimate emotional scars after things like service, which is probably even more disgusting when you think about it. We don't do emotional labor for each other anymore. Everybody's got to be perfect and ready to go like an unblemished apple at the grocery store or you get discarded.

Thank you for being so candid and this is the type of thought provoking discourse we need to restore our society. Being a man is all about balance and doing what’s right regardless and you hit that in many ways with this one. Thank you for all that you do and keep this format in the rotation!

    Kudos for breaking free of the bad example set by your Father. Most men emulate the same traits as their father when it comes to parenting, or have no example due to growing up in a fatherless home. You looked at it, recognized your Father's lack of parenting as unacceptable, and made the conscience decision to parent much differently. Raising good, kind people with great values is the finest compliment I can give anyone.

    The story of the 2 year old toddler who died
    Was in my county in a seaside town called Skegness one of the worst places to live in the uk. Child services and the police ignored multiple calls for a welfare check. They even went to check after a week but the door was locked so they left and came back to break the door down a week later. I couldn’t believe something so awful was able to happen so needlessly

    My God Antonio. That story was just heartbreaking. It's something I myself fear happening if I leave my son alone with my dad. My dad isn't in the best of health and sometimes I fear something might happen to him while watching little Diego. Before I used to feel a failure for having to live back with my parents after 35 y.o. and a bad break-up. Now I feel thankfull that I am in a position to care for my parents in their old age. That you so much for sharing that, it hurt my soul and made me cry; but thank you.

  • @darrellclaunch1518

    Fantastic video! I empathize with the story about the man and child. When we had our girls I chose to be a work from home dad while my wife taught. I worked hard as a freelancer to get enough projects in to cover bills while watching the kids during the day. This led to an average of 4 hours of sleep per night for years, which in part led to high blood pressure (because it wasnt good sleep and energy drinks to help me stay awake) and all the time at the desk and carrying baby gear led to an eventual hospital stay and back surgery. During this period I was so worried about having a heart attack and dying, leaving our infant and toddler on their own in the house with my body that I had my wife text me during her lunch break daily to verify I was still alive. It was a terrifying time that I am happy I have made it through and found better health (and sleep) on the other side. Two weeks is absolutely heartbreaking. Thank you for not editing your emotions out!

Love you, brother. Thank you.

    Men, we need each other. Iron sharpens iron after all. As a paramedic, I've had to deal with some monumentally hard and stressful times. Shifts where I drove home in tears due to the call I'd had to respond to. It's because I've taken the time to build up a network of family and friends that I was able to put my uniform back on and step back on the truck. Gents, we don't go through this life alone. Listen to Antonio! Look out for each other. Seek help if you need it. I've also had the privilege of being there for others through their struggles. It's well worth it to become the man that others will seek out in times of stress.

I have no savings and i live with my mother who won't be with us much longer so i need a retirement plan. I've been through so much that i deserve to marry a thin very pretty 20-something year old girl to shave my back and provide sex on demand. She must earn at least $400K a year to pay off my gambling debts, pay my child-support arrearages, buy me some teeth, get me health insurance to treat my STDs, and fund my retirement account.

I appreciate you being vulnerable with/to us (your audience) one of my biggest fears is dying alone so I really appreciate you sharing that story. I had a stroke when I was 27 and behind it, I became severely depressed through exercise and general self-care and self-love I pulled out of the depression without therapy or medication. I get you when you said that you NEED to workout and exercise to regulate your emotional well-being. Great video!

    One of your final sentances revealing you havent quite fully found your purpose is probably one of the most impactful points ive heard. It makes it feel as if at 35 without a clue what my purpose is, perhaps im not that far behind as i think.
    I tend to get caught up in jealousy often when creators talk of finding your purpose as i struggle to know my own. Knowing even someone with the levels of success that youve attained is similarly struggling relieved so much anxiety and stress of not being good enough.

Yesterday I just landed a massive life changing promotion at work. Know this brothers, your commitment will pay off over time. This would have never been possible if I wasn’t vulnerable enough to admit I needed help. Keep your eyes on the horizon and don’t chase the quick route feel good route. Semper Fi brother.

He lived on the edges and when he died he simply disappeared…his legacy was almost nothing. What you say about commitment is so true. It’s the old adage…being there is everything. You may not have all the answers, but you are there and it means everything.
