3 appeared from the gloom, cheering on the low 40F weather, but all thinking it didn't feel much warmer than the 30's.   LOL  (next week's reflection –> contentment)

reflection:  John 13: 34
"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another.  Just as I have loved you, you are to love one another.  By this, all people will know that you are my disciples."
– couldn't resist this verse with Valentine's Day around the corner
– Christ previously quoted Deuteronomy "Love others as you love yourself."
– We are all pretty selfish, so to love others as we love ourself is a pretty stout level.
– This new commandment of love is a huge level up from that, though.
– Christ loved us so much that he died and redeemed our souls from the wages of our sins.
– We are to love others that way as well.

– Note that how we lovelove will be a witness to others
– …a-n-d reflect what that might mean to those around you.

moleskine:
– Anvil makes a suggestion to rotate who runs first through the Couple Circuit.  It was interesting to note the difference between running 1st, 2nd, or 3rd.  Gave everyone the chance to suffer equally.  LOL
– Tonka followed the beatdown with a couple hours of paint ball with his kids and a regular paint ball crew…talks about maybe Q'ing from the paint ball arena someday….#LOVEIT

Thank you for the opportunity to lead.
Always an honor
