What a Man ( For him)
A man's strength is not measured by how much he can bench press or what big muscles he has
But how he has persevered and overcome the struggles of his past
A man's wisdom is not measured by his IQ or how quickly he can divide two into two
But by the lessons life has taught him and how he made it through
A man's power is not measured by his appearance or how badly he can hurt you
A powerful man you follow because when he speaks all you hear is truth
A man's wealth is not measured according to the material treasures he's collected in life
But by his family and how much he values his children & his wife
A man is a man and nothing more
One who is defined not by what he has but what he's working for
But how he has persevered and overcome the struggles of his past
A man's wisdom is not measured by his IQ or how quickly he can divide two into two
But by the lessons life has taught him and how he made it through
A man's power is not measured by his appearance or how badly he can hurt you
A powerful man you follow because when he speaks all you hear is truth
A man's wealth is not measured according to the material treasures he's collected in life
But by his family and how much he values his children & his wife
A man is a man and nothing more
One who is defined not by what he has but what he's working for

Refreshing read, speaking as one with a lot of the "nots" who has had some struggles but gained some strengths of the non-physical/material kind.
