QIC : BV

Blockman’s Creed

This is my block. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

My block is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.
Without me, my block is useless. Without my block, I am useless. I must carry and lift my block true. I must work harder than the Jester that seeks to kill me.

My block and I know that what counts in F3 is not the reps we complete, the noise of our grunts, nor the sweat we make. We know that it is the You v You work that counts.

My block is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts.

I will keep my block clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other.

Before God, I swear this creed. My block and I are the defenders of Virtuous Leadership. We are the masters of Sad Clownism. We are the Leaders in our Communities.

So be it, until victory is America’s and there is no Sad Clown, but only Virtuous Leadership.

Good recon on the new AO. Today’s work was sufficient but not too difficult.
Lots of good discourse at Coffeeteria RE: Charlie19. Hoping that Vector and BL will start a Slack channel for a deeper dive.
Naming still up in the air. Front runner is Green Acres or something like that. A guy from the hood used to park his landscaping trucks in the lot we use and that may or may not have been the name of his company.

BH:
Continued prayers for Ludwig and the Sinclair family. Not sure how we will be called to serve them but please be aware. Prayers appreciated for sure.

Well done today y’all. Great way to honor our Veterans. T claps to Umbrella for letting YHC jack his Q and for the coffee after. Ripped a pretty cool idea from Noodler last week, in COT, each PAX lifted up their own prayer and YHC closed out. A long version of the dial and hang up prayer chain from back in the day. Nice to have a Willy Loman in from F3 ATL. We lift up his son at The Naval Academy.

Weight v Wait Q

We all carry a weight, sometimes its visible like our coupons the 413ers carried. Sometimes its not visible like the dark things we don’t want exposed. Point is, we all have it and we all have others that are here for us to help shoulder that burden. We also wait on what is to come, that which is expected but not seen. We have a faith in something bigger than ourselves that sustains us.

The 413ers have both a Weight and to Wait for the next chapter to unfold. It is our duty as HIM to walk alongside and encourage them.

I was reading Deuteronomy 1:30-31 this am and it reminded me of the waiting we all have to do. The Israelites were waiting on the Promised Land and Moses was reminding them of how God fought for them in Egypt and picked them up as a father does with his child. It just seemed to fit with this am Q.
