Circle of Trust
Our family hung out with John Denver’s on Friday. My oldest daughter turned 6 and we celebrated on Saturday with 15 people at our house and my youngest was baptized Sunday as we hosted 44 more.We are exhausted, running on fumes, drained but damn do I love it. We are in peak life right now and it will never be this good. PERSPECTIVE.You could look at a Q/ workout/ your 1stF and think about how overwhelmingly difficult and scary it might be. Or you can go after it because you never know when you won’t be able to again. PERSPECTIVE.With your 2ndF, take a chance. Host an event, show up to a place or gathering you normally wouldn’t. Don’t avoid because of the unknown. PERSPECTIVE.Step up your 3rdF and do something uncomfortable. Volunteer at an event you would otherwise avoid, donate dollars when you’d prefer to be frugal or step up and lead an event when you don’t have time. PERSPECTIVEIf you aren’t being humbled physically weekly, if you aren’t doing something uncomfortably socially and if you are not stepping up in the community when given the opportunity then you will forever MO. And you will never fail. If this speaks to you, change your PERSPECTIVE. When you change your PERSPECTIVE and accomplish something you never thought you could or would normally do the feeling of that is second to none. AYE!
Naked Man Moleskin
Picasso has never been to one of my Q’s. What?! Halfway through the run he pit stop and I kicked up the groups pace on the Slingshot run back to see if we could outrun him. We didn’t.
Rooney ended up setting a running personal best with a 7:42 mile. Zero quit. Appreciate you having my 6!
Ditka coming off an impressive personal best 5K didn’t look tired at all, impressive.
Ozark is either a pain enthusiasts or one of my disciples. He crushed this beatdown.
