Man! Speak Up‪!‬ The Idea of Manhood

I’ve noticed something with myself over the past two or three years. I’m not even going to project and make the assumption that other men have experienced this. But I’ve noticed that in situations where I would normally speak up and be very vocal, that I have become silent. I’m not really sure why, and I don’t really know if any of the rooms I am in are better with me being silent or with me being engaged and vocal. I’m assuming it’s something in the middle. But it’s definitely something I’ve noticed that I have taken on and that I am trying to be more mindful about. I think it’s time for me to speak up more.
