COT:
Carrie underwood recently sang America the Beautiful at the recent inauguration. What made it interesting and notable is that the accompanying music did not work. Technical difficulties. Instead of complaining or quitting, she offered to sing it without the music and asked the audience to sing it with her. It turned out to be a very memorable rendition.

Sometimes life throws you for a loop despite all your preparation, practice and expectation. The Q shared his reflections on how 2024 threw his family for a loop in 2024.

When life brings up “technical difficulties” and you don’t know the way forward, there will be other people there with you to sing whatever song you need to sing. Ask them. Sometimes those people are the men of F3.
