Sometimes I worry about the guys. They are every bit as human as we are, but it feels like they get to open up about it less. Craig tells me that ninety percent of his conversations with other men are about weather, news, and sports. I know this isnt true for all guys, but it feels true for many. And I think its really dangerous to be part of a culture that insists you hide your vulnerable self all the time. I dont think this hiding is good for men or their people or the world. Somebodys gotta set the guys free. And I think a lot of people agree because often when Im out speaking, someone will raise her hand and say, Hey, Glennon, Wheres the truth-telling and hope-spreading revolution for the guys? My husband needs it. That happens all the time. THIS is why I cried my way through Scary Close, the book my friend Donald Miller is releasing soon. When I finished this book,I was in a little bit of shock and so I left it on Craigs side of the bed with a sticky note that said, Is this book as freaking good as I think it is? And THE NEXT DAY Craig walked into my cloffice teary-eyed and said, Yeah. Its that freaking good. Hes not a huge reader, but he finished Scary Close in one day, and hes on his third reading now. So, anyway. Just wanted you to know that some help is on the way. Im really, really grateful for my friend Donald Miller and all the amazing people at Storyline, Craig is grateful, too. Also, I just really like saying, my friend, Donald Miller. How you doin Donald Miller, old buddy, old pal? I hope my friend Donald Miller is having a good day today. Kay, Im done. OOPS, wait.
