With great power, comes great responsibility.
MOLESKIN:
I love the new spiderman movie, seen it 3 times now. And one of the scenes that sticks out in every spiderman is when Peter is told “With great power, comes great responsibility.”

This line has stuck with me because ever since I was 15 I’ve had some sort of leadership role with my job teaching martial arts. Now not only do I lead students, but also a team of instructors, and  it isn’t always easy. However, I believe that is what I am here to do, it’s my power. So, whether it’s at work or at home, we all have the power to lead, and it is our responsibility to.

Excerpt from The Collision Learner blog by Dredd:

https://www.collisionlearner.com/post/the-force-that-divides

It need only make Paul and John jealous of one another and convince Ringo that it was not his place to intercede. It need only have me raise my voice to my daughter and convince me in the morning that the crack I had caused would heal itself. And, for our nation, it need only persuade some citizens to turn away from some others merely because the color of their skin is different. And then convince the rest of us that this is a problem that will take care of itself without Leadership.

It won’t. Whether family or nation, the Force that divides wins if the fathers ignore the cracks.

Don’t listen to that voice telling you to be Ringo. That’s the Force that divides. Listen to the other voice, the one telling you that a cord of three strands is not easily broken, that a house divided against itself cannot stand.

That’s the Father’s voice. Listen that voice. And act.”

F3 is about leadership. We must acknowledge our role in helping to unite our community. As we move into 2022, its clear we can no longer sit back and expect the crack to fix itself.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
My inner nerd came out and I spoke briefly about the life of Abraham Lincoln. Honest Abe faced many difficult obstacles throughout his lifetime – grew up extremely poor, suffered from clinical depression, lost multiple children at young ages, lost a U.S. Senate bid to Stephen Douglas in 1858, and many more as president. However, for each specific situation, he fought through the adversity by leaning on his faith, humility, and vulnerability. Every individual in his close circle of trust was aware of his struggles and he was not afraid to communicate his hardships to those closest to him. This is a rare trait that people truly admired about him.

With the past two years being trying times for everyone in their own way, it is important for us to utilize the F3 platform to encourage, support, serve, etc. each other. I challenged everyone to be vulnerable in 2022 and to never be afraid to speak up if there’s anything your fellow PAX can do to help in any way.
