COT:Albert Schweitzer, was a German philosopher that lived in the late 1800s through early 1900s. He is attributed with this quotation: “The Purpose of Human Life is to SERVE, and to show the compassion and the Will to Help Others.” We discussed this quote and how it applies to F3, and ended with another quote: “In everyone’s life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.”. I am thankful that the men of F3 have been that spark for me.

5 Thoughts for 5 Minutes | Songs being played during this time (“Snowfall” by Øneheart | “Spirit Lead Me Where My Trust is Without Borders” by Raspo)

1 | Clear the Noise

– Close our eyes and carry the mind to heart-centered
– Clearing your head with all the noise around you
– Find Yourself where you are at the Present

2 | Visualize

– Visualize | Where you are.. What you want to do with your life.. who do you want to be tomorrow.. what needs to change

3 | Present Day Question

– If death stood in front of you would you hug it?
– Identify why, what, and who is bringing you to that.. address the situation

4 | Muhammad Ali Poem

“Friendship is a priceless gift that cannot be bought nor sold, but its value is far greater than a mountain made of gold. For gold is cold and lifeless. It can neither see nor hear. In times of trouble, it’s powerless cheer. It has no ears to listen, no heart to understand. It cannot bring you comfort or reach out a helping hand. So when you ask God for a gift, be thankful if sends not diamonds, pearls, or riches but the love of real, true friends”

• Ponder on who those figures are that God has given you

5 | Why do we close our eyes?

“Why do we close our eyes when we pray, when we cry, when we kiss, when we dream, because the most beautiful things in our life are not seen but felt by the heart”

• Clean up the mind and come back to life at the present moment.. still at heart-centered remain calm and reduce the noise
