CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
quoted Warren Buffet about reaction. ” you will continue to suffer if you have an emotional reaction to everything that is said to you. True power is sitting back and observing things with logic. True power is restraint. If words control you that means everyone else can control you. Breathe and allow things to pass.”

Cited this to make the point that in a world where everyone seems to have a negative reaction to everything done or said, be a positive one if you have to react at all.  If we start at home and lift one another up, who knows how that will translate in life for the person who is being negative.  People don’t always remember what you do but they do remember how you made them feel.

Men continue to look forward as you move through life.  Learn from the past but don’t dwell on it.

Couple quotes to sum it up.

“Sometimes God closes doors because it’s time to move forward. He knows you won’t move unless your circumstances force you. Trust the transition. God’s got you.” Anonymous

“Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go, just remember how far you have come. Remember everything you have faced, all the battles you have won, and all the fears you have overcome.” Anonymous.

Consider what Cain’s response to God when He asked him “where is your brother”.  Cain responded with “Am I my brother’s keeper”.  God does call us to be our brother’s keeper.  The Word today is to pay attention to those around you and take note of changes in behavior.  Be an encouragement to others in their time of struggle.
MOLESKIN:
A lot of mubblechatter today about the “lazy Q”.  I started the workout by stating that I did put much time into the Q.  All in good fun.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

“A band of brothers, in the sense that we use the words in this book, is not a meeting, a club, a therapy group, or a self-help society. It is the group of men we do life with. It is the team of brothers committed with us to the cause of great manhood. It is the band of men with whom we build a manly culture of inspiration and achievement.” – Stephen Mansfield, “Building Your Band of Brothers”

MOLESKIN:
F3 is that, a band of brothers and so much more than a club, support group , etc..
