CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
John 8:32 – “And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
As a progression from my VQ CoT, I can’t help to but appreciate the openness and honesty amongst the men I share the gloom with.
We know that the truth is in GOD and in the Bible. But are we aware of our own truths, set forth by God? There is no need to hide behind any mask. You are who you are, if you let that true person out in the world, people will appreciate that more. Being open and authentic is not the food you eat or where you are from. Being authentic is being true to god, others, and yourself. Being authentic is being kind, generous, and genuine. The more you make the effort honestly and totally to be kind, generous, and genuine – perhaps you can discover more truth in yourself. Oh and write more thank you’s – it’s good medicine 🙂
MOLESKIN:
It was great to see a few of the brand new guys who were FNGs on Monday return today. All fantastic attitudes, took the beat down, and had even better attitudes after. They inspired me today.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
We gave T-Clap to Whiskey for his elite form in the St. Jude marathon this week. (6th place overall 2 years in a row – the same week his sister became a Real Irish Hero becoming the #1 Female Boxer in the World, and even had a Civic Reception by the President of Ireland on her return). Both are tremendous examples to follow – disciplined, strict, and regimented. A family from the inner-city who prove hard work pays off. Honored to have him a part of our F3 family.
