COT
COT: I have finished reading “Free to Lead” and ready to pass on to whomever would like to read it. I found references to the 3rd F most valuable. The third F does not refer to any particular religion or worldview. It simply means that one has a concern outside of oneself (chapter 2). The third F has nothing to do with religion and everything to do with love (chapter 4). And then the reference to “I am Third” written by Gale Sayers was very valuable to me. If we can model our life under the paradigm that God is first, friends and family are second and I am third, we are much more likely to find peace and success in life.
I shared with the Pax how I many times struggle with being there for some of my friends that reach out to me with personal struggles. Friendship is not always a convenient thing, it often takes work and is always worth the effort.
Philippians 2:1-11 ESV
Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. Have this mind among yourselves.
Moleskin
It was much easier to hold on to the bottles without gloves
The “Free to Lead” book has been passed on to Blackout.
Deep Dish only knows how to count to five. For all higher numbers he just calls out “Five”.
