“Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God’s kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile.” – Mother Teresa

When we come in contact with other people, we should be leaving them in a better state than we found them. It is our responsibility to help raise them up, and to make sure that we do not let any negativity bring us down. No man left behind, no man left the same.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM: 
The moment when your young children wake up in the morning and come out of their rooms to embrace you is a special time. I’m usually in my recliner, drinking coffee and as soon as I hear their door open I stop whatever I am doing and open my arms to embrace them. Our heavenly Father desires the same time with us – So instead of grabbing your phone and getting busy checking email, social media or whatever – Just stop, pause for a moment – and realize that God is there waiting on you to come and be with him just like you wait for your kids. It can be short, 5 minutes being quiet, studying his word, listening.  Can you imagine if your kid walked out of his/her bedroom and saw you waiting with open arms and said.. “hold on dad, I’ve got to reply to this person or see what happened while I was sleeping.” Seems kinda silly right?

WARM-O-RAMA:
I had them youngsters bid farewell to Sally with some cossack squats. Sally was a mess of emotion. First she was up, then down, then up again…

Then we all settled affairs at the farm by selling our 10 henderkins to farmer Yosef, and but then we were cut free to head up to the mountains and seek our fortunes.

THA-THANG:
Everyone grabbed a pickaxe from the CMU depot, so there was plenty of them up in the mines.

Without giving away any incriminating details, and laid out the plan that would soon make me-er uh… all of us rich!

At the mountain, we had a couple of fellers hold up the old abandoned mine shafts in a variety of ways:

  • Low plank
  • Knees above parallel bars
  • Bar hang
  • Low dip
  • Balance board
  • Etc.

Meanwhile we sent another feller down in the mine to dig out some nuggets (10 blockies per nugget). As soon as anyone dropped their shaft, boy I’ll tell you it kicked up a heap of dust and make a racket that carried on for miles! So I told the boys to split and split fast anytime that happened and to lay low in the camps.

Laying low in the camps:

Camp 1

  • 20 iron Mikes 2ct
  • 20 monkey jumpers 4ct
  • 20 side lunges (10 each leg)

Camp 2

  • 20 mountain Climbers 4ct
  • 20 Peter Parkers 4ct
  • 20 in and outs single ct

Camp 3

  • 20 diamond merkins
  • 20 Carolina dry dock
  • 20 Berpees

Camp 4

  • 20 cmu bent rows
  • 20 Lawnmowers (10 per arm)
  • 20 cmu swings

MARY:
After a good day of prospecting, I introduced the boys to Mary and she showed us a good time… 20 ic LBCs and hold 6 inches…

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Much like prospecting, life can feel like things are getting in the way of each other. Work keeps us from family. Family drama makes work hard. Etc. However, we need to keep the perspective that we are where we are meant to be in each moment to do the best we can in that moment. Laying low in the camps isn’t just so you can get up to mine gold. There is good stuff happening wherever we are if we’re willing to be a part of it.

Indian Run over to the Educator only to find out that there is nice smooth dirt (probably freshly seeded). Woodshack did not want to harm the dirt since he is so nice. So instead, we jogged over to the worse and steeper Mount Suckmore and did 12’s instead of 11’s since time was wasted.

  • Start with 1 Inchworm Merkin Broad Jump at the top
  • Bernie up the hill each time (RIP quads)

Indian Run back to AO

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Kobe Bryant was all over the news and social media this week after his sudden passing in a helicopter crash. One of my favorite quotes I saw by him was:

” I don’t want to be the next Michael Jordan, I only want to be Kobe Bryant”

He spent his life becoming one of the greatest basketball players of all time. He had plenty of people he looked up to, but he was himself and never stopped being himself.

1 Samuel 16:7 – But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For the Lord sees not as a man sees: Man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.”

Be your own person in life. Don’t follow in the footsteps of others. Use them as examples and learning points to form the person you want your friends, family, and children to remember when you’re gone one day. That is what leaving a legacy is all about.
