It's international mens day today. It's also world toilet day but I don't think the two are linked, unless the toilet seat has been left up of course. I have 2 boys, who will one day go from being boys to men, and I try my best to be a good example to them of what being a modern man is about. I'm sure I do things wrong and have done, i'm sure I'll continue to but I am certain that by being as open as possible about being sensitive, not having to be the strong silent type and even (shock horror) crying that I'll help my boys turn out alright. These are some of the things I have done recently as a man. Um that's it really. Happy international mens day.

The result was interesting and i typed the scores she had given me up as we went along and then sent it to her at the end. It looked like this. So within 10 minutes we had gone from "I can't think of any more of my good qualities' to the scores above.
We don't need to be perfect, but if we're not perfect that doesn't mean we don't score and don't have the quality and should not recognise it. Thinking in black and white about things can be exhausting because life can either be good or a catastrophe. The balance comes somewhere in the middle with accepting sometimes it will be good and sometimes not so good. Next time you or someone you care about is feeling down, try the scores approach.
