A man, above all, recognizes his duty and therefore does not accept it lightly. He understands that his word is his bond, exercised by everyday actions and daily decisions. He will not waft through life selfish or disconnected, like someone who carries a fickle mind. A man, a real man, will not make promises he cannot keep, and chooses his words as carefully as he does his commitments. And because this man honors his words, he is in turned honored in his actions.
And while years may fall carelessly from the calendar, and the world may pass us by like a reckless wind, it is never too late to man up and mean it

On a side note, I am a woman, and I’ve always had the impulse to open doors for people. I’m uncomfortable when men open doors for me just because I’m a woman, as I’d be just as likely to open a door for a man. So yes, open doors for people. It’s polite. But know that every individual will have a different reaction that may or may not be “congruent” with what’s expected for their gender.
