DODGEBALL!!
This is a workout version of dodgeball I came up with. This is just a trial run and only played for a few minutes during the duration of Welcome to the Jungle song. Regular dodgeball rules apply, except You can only Dodge with a squat jump or a burpee. If you get out, pick an exercise to do and rotate as necessary.

After not even a full round, we found the game needed to modified. If you get hit, 2 burpees. If you miss, 1 burpee.

Original version may work if we use more space in the future though.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Frankl writes from Man’s Search for Meaning-
“Let us first ask ourselves what should be understood by “a tragic optimism.” In brief it means that one is, and remains, optimistic in spite of the “tragic triad,” as it is called in logotherapy, a triad which consists of those aspects of human existence which may be circumscribed by: (1) pain; (2) guilt; and (3) death. This chapter, in fact, raises the question, How is it possible to say yes to life in spite of all that? How, to pose the question differently, can life retain its potential meaning in spite of its tragic aspects? After all, “saying yes to life in spite of everything,” to use the phrase in which the title of a German book of mine is couched, presupposes that life is potentially meaningful under any conditions, even those which are most miserable. And this in turn presupposes the human
capacity to creatively turn life’s negative aspects into something positive or constructive. In other words, what matters is to make the best of any given situation. “The best,” however, is that which in Latin is called optimum—hence the reason I speak of a tragic optimism, that is, an optimism in the face of tragedy and in view of the human potential which at its best always allows for: (1) turning
suffering into a human achievement and accomplishment; (2) deriving from guilt the opportunity to change oneself for the better; and (3) deriving from life’s transitoriness an incentive to take responsible action.”
This is why I love F3 and all of you men. It seems that all of this applies to my time with you all.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Living in God’s presence:  What we consider sin is not really sin but the symptoms of our sinful state. The essence of sin is the willful turning away from God.  And the opposite of this is repentance, or turning back to Him.  Left to our own devices we tend to  pull away but the Spirit draws us back . God is always calling us to Him and we have the gift of His presence and the option to turn away.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

We should strive to be our best everyday whether it’s being the best husband, father, son, brother, co-worker, etc. I don’t feel like I’m being my best every day. I struggle to consistently live up to my potential. The good news is every day we have a chance to be our best.

Good and bad things happen every day.  On July 20th, the following things happened:

  • 1921 Congresswoman Alice Mary Robertson becomes the first woman to preside over the floor of US House of Representatives
  • 1944 Death March of 1,200 Jews from Lipcani Moldavia begins
  • 1967 Race riots in Memphis, Tennessee
  • 1969 1st Moon Landing: Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin step out from Apollo spacecraft 11,530 million watch live global broadcast
  • 1976 Hank Aaron hits 755th and last home run off Angels Dick Drago
  • 1995 Shaquem Griffin, American one-handed NFL player (Seahawks), was born (very inspirational story – look him up!)

One of my favorite quotes is:

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” ― Edmund Burke

Let’s be good men. Let’s serve others. Let’s love everyone. Let’s strive to be better each and every day.

Iron Sharpens Iron – Let’s sharpen each other and make us better every day!
