Men whom you respect and/or look up to 100%

Wow...I wish I could say my father.
He hasn't really messed up.

But the whole; feeding me, clothing me, taking care of me?
I don't admire that as much as I expect it? Is that wrong?
When you have a child with a women, its YOUR responsibility. You should be in a position where you can give your child all that and more.
In my opinion, if a parent isn't doing that, then he's fucking up.
And if he IS doing it, and nothing more, then he's just barely making it by.



Anyway-

Bruce Lee. I've read all the books. Seen all the movies. Seen all the interviews.
And I've seen what was left in his short but tremendous wake.

I think not knowing a person 100% helps me respect them 100%. I don't know if he was an asshole...even though all of his friends said he was amazing.
But the fact that I don't know him personaly makes him more like a god-like figure.

He destroyed the walls between martial arts styles, faught the barriers of race with his marrige, faught the triads to keep his schools open, and excepted ANY and ALL challanges.

There were "stories" of on set fights where extras didn't beleive his skill. And were taught very quickly he did have the skill.

I think these "stories" are exactly what you should look for when thinking about a role modle.
A few people said God as their role model. Is god not just a bunch of stories and text?
The thing is, it's all about faith. If you beleive in it, then it's real.
I feel the same way about Mr.Lee. He's immortal. He's done more in his short 30 or so years on this planet then most will do in 3 lifetimes.


Wow....that was really drawn out. :\

Jam it back in, in the dark.
