Man.
It’s a word that’s been around for as long as we can remember.
It’s definition changes with every application.
When one hears the word, one may think of a full grown, muscular human male with masculine attributes and a self-confident demeanor.
Jeffrey.
That word only has one definition.
But I don’t think it’s the same one.
Where am I going with this?
Well... I don’t feel like an adult.
I don’t feel like a... a MAN.
I’m just... me.
I don’t fit any of those attributes at all.
I feel... pathetic. Puny. A disgrace. Shameful of myself.
But...
At the same time, maybe...
Just maybe...
Maybe the word “man” doesn’t have to be a negative one after all...
