I’ve often heard the saying, “Anyone can dig a ditch, but it takes a real man to get out of it. “ To represent making your own problems, and solving them too.

Any man can dig a ditch, but it takes a real man to fill it. Anyone can make things worse for themselves, but it takes courage to turn it around and try to make it better. Also, congrats on #1 on trending!

when james talked about how he hated when people were “cool” with their teachers, i was always like “yeah i agree”. but that was before i reached sophomore year of high school and met mr shinn…he’s a father figure for me and he’s prolly gonna be at my wedding someday 😭. i wouldn’t say im “cool” with him, but we have a father-child bond that’s quite wonderful imo

"My dog dog died. Ha Ha Ha yeah they do that."😂

the riddle means anyone has the ability to dig a ditch, but it takes a real man to actually do it. there is no missing part to the riddle.

Damn the "quotation marks incident" took me back.. I took a class in poetry in college, and the teacher used to say it was wrong of us to assume you need prior information on the author's backstory to understand a poem, everything you need to know is in the text. So she would ask stuff like: "What does the author mean with X?" And I would be like: "because of the wording, it sounds like he means Y", and she would correct me: "Oh no, to understand this you actually have to know that he moved houses a lot as a child and that his dad used to beat him up". I quit right after that.

"Anyone can dig a ditch, but it takes a real man to realize he doesn't have to"

[jalahjohn]

The one you said actually kinda makes sense(anyone can dig a ditch, but it takes a real man to call it home) because it sounds like it's telling you to be Grateful for what you have
