Message to Susan
Susan:
My father always taught me to be brave
To be heroic and always to stand firm
To always take the bull by the balls
To sound off like you’ve got a pair
To absolutely fear nothing and no one
To walk like a man, to talk like a man
To always, always act like a real man
With strength and kindness
With decorum and honesty
With a steely determination
With a heart of pure gold
Being man enough to fight
Being man enough to forgive
Man enough to love and protect
Man enough to show respect and honour
Balls of steel
Lionhearted
Chest out
Butt cheeks clenched
Straight as a dye
A man’s man
A lady’s man
I know that today
He will be turning
In his grave
As I send you this text message
Susan – to tell you I don’t love you anymore
And we are finished

David, be careful grabbing bulls by the balls, they kick like mules, but with balls...
Same goes with breaking up with women... something about Hell and fury and scorn...

I am just fascinated by the trend of breaking up with people through text messages or facebook - takes impersonal to a new level :-)
I don't think I have ever tried grabbing anything by the balls - certainly wouldn't try it with a ballsy woman :-)

In he past it was over the phone, and not the cellular kind... before that it was dear John letters. Probably morse code or smoke signals before that. Cavemen just clubbed 'em over the head, lol...
I knew a couple ballsy women who grabbed mine but it was in a good painful sort of way. But these days there's no such thing as good pain!

"Chest out
Butt cheeks clenched" Never read it put quite like that before, delightful.
Our fathers were of a similar mold. In the end we must live on our terms, not theirs
and i say more power to you.
Very good read.

Enjoyed the read and obviously your Dad wanted you to live dangerously...grab a bull by the balls...mine always said 'by the horns'...a lot safer think :) :)
