Finally got my blog to a place I liked it. Going to get back to writing, and I’ve been dusting off the archive. I think this was one of my more important articles.

Good read. How about a short story about the knight brought forward through time? 😉

I think I watched that somewhere, but I feel like there is a lot to both laugh at and learn from that has yet to be written.

Makes me want to take a turn at fiction again.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read that brother. 🙇‍♂️

that preview image doesn't render here 😕

Noticing that. I’m a new web dev, using the blog starter point to learn some react+next stuff. I’ll have to look into it!

That was beautiful. 🥺

Thank you Laesarin. I value a compliment from you.

Excellent... and sad. 🫂

Bittersweet,

At least, gallantry isn't completely dead. 😊

Yep, that actually seems to be growing in quiet ways during recent years... hope springs eternal

🫂

Thank you Dawn. I appreciate it so much. ❤️

It is sad. Something essential has been lost. I hope we find it again.

I think its possible. Things like subtlety, selflessness, and appreciation still exist so the pieces are out there, it's just a matter of getting them back together. We have to make it through this current pendulum swing, but as long as the good ones remain good then the seeds have already been sown. 😊🫂

This is a beautiful hope, and I think it’s true. ❤️

Cool thing about hope.. it can't ever really be untrue, can it? 😁💜

Well written. I enjoyed the read.

Thank you brother.

People and society as a whole would do good to linger and ponder on the concepts and ideas in that last section of of your post. Was spot on and woefully underexplored, under-appreciated. Folks get distracted by soundbytes from the extremes.

I agree. The last paragraph has enough to unpack for several blog posts tbh. Perhaps it’s been long enough to revisit the subject.

Thank you for taking the time to read and comment. It is deeply appreciated.

Excellent article. The Ten Commandments of Chivalry was a perfect inclusion—they crystalize the masculine virtue for which we ought to strive.

Thank you brother. 🫂
