COT:

We talked a lot about Q-101 and the importance of planning a hard Q. We’re men who like a challenge and want to push ourselves.

We also talked about how prosper has been used to mean financial gain. When the word was designed to mean, to go forward in hope.

Therefore, the opposite of Hope is not to be poor, unless you are poor in spirit.

The opposite of Hope is Despair.

Go forward in Hope!

It’s the foundation of our faith!

COT:
Reminder to all men to not get jaded and feel like we’ve seen it all and done it all. Encouraged to try to see wonder in everyday things and try something new. My Son convinced me to drive him to Peach Tree City, GA to see an airshow where the F-22 Raptor Demo Team was performing. I really did not want to go, but I wanted to give my Son the experience he wanted. It was an astounding demonstration of the capabilities of that aircraft. It reminded me of my love of aviation and planes fueled by adolescent memories of Top Gun, Iron Eagle, Firebirds, and other stupid movies that haven’t aged well. Be positive Guys and remember your Kids still have things to learn from you.
