STRENGTH OF A MAN

The strength of a man isn`t seen in the width of his shoulders.

It`s seen in the width ofhis arms that encircle and protect you.

The strength of a man isn`t in the deep toneof his voice.

It is in the gentle words he whispers.

The strength of a man isn`t in the words he speaks.

It`s in how he keeps his word.

The strength of a man isn`t how many buddies he has.

It`s how good a buddy he is with his or "your" children.

The strength of a man isn`t in how respected he is at work.

It`s in how he is respected at home.

The strength of a man isn`t in how hard he hits.

It`s in how tender he touches.

The strength of a man isn`t in the hair on his chest.

It`s in his heart....that lies within his chest.

The strength of a man isn`t in how many women he`s loved.

It`s in whether he can be true to
the ONE woman he`s trying to love.

The strength of a man isn`t in the weight he can lift.

It`s in the burdens he can carry.

The strength of a man isn`t in how much food he eats from your table.

It`s in the effort he puts forth when you are unable.

The strength of a man isn`t in how he makeslove.

It`s in the understanding that there is more to making love......than making love.

A strong man puts God first; family second;and his work third.
