Freedom to fight for love – Man to Man



Hello, hello, hello, may I speak to Ntonwi please… This is Ntiante and you may or may not know me but I was sorting through my woman’s clothes yesterday for laundry and I saw your name and number on the beautiful love note from you to her…  You know every time people ask me why I grow these sinewy muscles, big broad chest and strong hands; every time they ask me why I stretch my brain and nourish it and grow its power and mental muscles; every time they ask me why I grow my spiritual clout and muscles; every time they ask me why I grow a muscular bank account… I usually greet these questions with penetrating profound silence, but now let me break that silence and give you the answer – it is for people like you. I am sure that by now you know where I am coming from… You should also be guessing by now and rightly so that I am not going to throw my woman to your trash can… I love this woman to the point that I will leverage my muscles, all my muscles to fight for her, to protect her, to secure her and her heart… one thing you may not know is the price I have paid to accompany her to this place in life… some day if you force me I will show you the scars of the battles I have fought along the way… someday if you push me to I will show you the stars which showed us the way through the nights of countless storms… next time you see me take a good look at my calloused knees from countless hours of prayer through treacherous routes...  some day if you invite me, I will teach you how to protect a woman like this but you may not have a voice to tell the tale later because I will take it… and after I do if you do not leave her alone you will be like the countless worms that eat from the dust of the earth… It really doesn’t matter what you think or feel… I just wanted to remind you that the woman you see in your dreams belongs to me… I will fight for everything she is from the soles of her feet to the hairs on her head… I will fight for her heart… I am having this discussion only once… So man to man… man to man… I just wanted to be sure you understand how much I love this woman and what lengths I am ready to go to keep her… maybe if you step into my shoes… you will know how I feel… and maybe you will understand that in my shoes you will do the same … So man to man… I hope you understand that I don’t want your trouble and that I will not let any man or anybody break up my home and its peace… Go figure how to leave her alone. Now let me go take a coffee and find my voice!

  1. Hey Ntiante Hilary, If we get hold of Ntonwi we will punch his head. The sinewy muscles part os s so funny but I very much like the alloused knees from countless hours of prayer. It appears I am falling in love with this ....blog or is it the writings on the blog...? Either way I will not hold gravity for the fall. Keep going bro....
