Here's most of a comment left recently:
"I just had the pleasure to meet Michael while traveling through Great Barrington, MA. Mike and I along with the convenience store clerk where we were buying fuel for our vehicles shared life.
Amongst us, we are blessed with 12 children and one grandchild. Six boys and seven girls. Ages 23yrs. - 2yrs. The special place they each have in our hearts. Our hopes and dreams for their accomplishments. But most importantly, our desire to be the best fathers we can be.
I would like to thank you Mike for sharing the vision of Grow the Heart of a Man. You have my promise to share the vision.
As for a word of wisdom; as our boys become young men and discover the wonder of young ladies, let us teach them to appreciate the differences. The difference in thinking and emotion. The difference in how they love, care and share.
But most importantly, we should teach our sons and other young men when they are ready, to seek a mate, to let the Father send them someone who they are equally yoked with.
A similar value system. A similar faith walk. To consider if this young lady were to change absolutely nothing about her self, could he love and commit to her for a lifetime. This is a truly great gift we could share.
I look forward to spending time here again. Thank you Michael. May the Father bless you as you and your family travel.
Thank YOU for the comment. And to all the men I gave cards to this past month alone: in Andover, MA, Lawrence, MA, Cornwall Bridge, CT, New Milford, CT (and tomorrow, Ohio) , I'm serious about gathering your wisdom. I am still adamant about screening for obnoxious comments - you will never have to sift through garbage to get to the gold here. The "Husband Song" humor is about as wild as it gets other than challenging men to BE the best husbands, fathers, priests, deacons, brothers, and sons they can be. More to come as time allows.
