I am tired of feeling like I am not man enough.

I am tired of being pushed around and away.

I am tired of looking and acting tough.

I am tired of violence.

I am entitled to my emotions.

I deserve safety and prosperity.

I deserve thriving in a security.

I deserve to have my vulnerabilities.

I deserve to be taken seriously.

My emotions and toughts amount to something.

My feelings matter.

My opinions matter.

I am valuable.
