Heroic Accountability

 Do you wanna be just some dude? Some guy who isn’t known for anything. You just turn up with everyone else and do stuff?

No, man.

You are THAT DUDE. That guy who’s recognised for having character. Who is so principled that he won’t do or say anything that contradicts his values. The fucking granite rock in a sea of floundering slimy peasants.

Your word is bond.

You own your Ls. Fix your fuck ups and turn them into Ws.

You’re known for welcoming a challenge and rising to the occasion.

For sure you’re not the lazy one. Not the spineless one. Not the flaky one. Not the one who’s looking for comfort and convenience for himself.

You’re doing all the hard shit so that the people you care about can have that comfort and convenience. You fight the battles so they don’t have to.

And sometimes all that responsibility weighs heavy on you, brah.

Which is why this piece is a reminder of who you are and what you stand for so you can draw your sword and continue the fight even when it feels like too much. Be the hero that others count on. 

When they doubt their own strength they call on you.

When she worries, one embrace from you puts her at ease.

When your children aren’t sure of what’s right they come to you for guidance.

You are the rock. You are the warrior.

You have heroic accountability.

On a background of the Medici Palace in Florence - a photo I took on my last visit there - stands a depiction of the Roman god Mars. The Medici were Florence’s most important ruling family, who over generations were responsible for that city becoming a powerhouse in Italy. Mars, revered as a god of war, was also seen as level-headed and just, called upon to deliver victory in battle.

“Word Is Bond. Heroic Accountability. Become A Man Of Value And Purpose.” are the words on this piece.
