Three Types Of Men: "The first type of man is a follower. He does not have the courage or will to think for himself. The second type of man is a thinker. He dictates his own reality and does think for himself. The third type of man is a student and a teacher. He is one that learns from others and life. He thinks for himself and he also teaches others the lessons he’s learned from his experiences." All My Tears: Poetry & Thoughts Copyright© (late Jan 2013 release) ↗
