Just wanted to say a huge thanks and well done for continuing the initiative! It certainly has been wonderful to watch, and after reading so many passionate and brave stories, I now feel the confidence to contribute (albeit from a female perspective).

Not sure if this is along the lines of what you are looking for – my brother is not ready to contribute from his own words. If it is along the lines you were thinking, let me know and I'll submit.

Once again thank you.

My name is Mathew Bock and I'm a Youth Ambassador for ReachOut.

During Man Week, I was a guest blogger for ReachOut.

I wrote a personal reflection on the influence my father had on my understanding of masculinity, which can be viewed on the RO website Blog section.

I would be more than happy for you to use my post in the book, if you feel it is appropriate.

Please feel free to contact me via e-mail.

Cheers,

Mathew
