ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Collecting items for Afghan refugees this week at the Tues & Thursday beatdowns. See the What’s App post for more details.

Super Bowl party – 6pm at my place 5028 Baltan Road. Open to kids and partners. I’ll have some assorted beers iced down. Please RSVP with an item you’d like to bring.

Saturday March 12 – Old Bay & Magoo looking to enlist our support and participation in a tri-state Ruck / Hike across Chain Bridge Road (it would replace our 2nd Saturday run). It would end with a breakfast at Bob & Edith’s restaurant (5050 Lee Hwy, Arlington)

The next Adopt a Road Clean up will coincide with Earth Day – on April 23rd (3rd Saturday). The Capital Region now has adopted 4 roads – and they’d like to do a convergence across these sites. With 36 people at Saturday’s clean up, let’s think of creative structures to make the event workable in the future. Found out that they now allow us to leave our trash / recycling bags afterward in a central location and report the pick up site to MoCo.

Aiming for a Q-School in the spring so we can broaden our Q rotation

COT:
Q Source 2.7 Targeting

Targeting is about creating opportunities for others to achieve their highest impact – where they can discover and live out their purpose on behalf of others so they can serve. Maslow called this the very highest and most holistic level of human consciousness – the freedom to move beyond yourself and find true Joy.

Relational Rhythm – The individual components of life are best when they’re in sync for any of them to function properly. If your diet is out of control, relationships can decelerate, when time isn’t made for family, relationships with kids suffer etc.

Black History Factoid – on this day in 1968 actor Gary Coleman was born – all 4’ 8” of him (“what you talking ‘bout”, Winston?)

WORDS OF WISDOM

Nehemiah 4:17-18

17 Furthermore, a hundred and fifty Jews and officials ate at my table, as well as those who came to us from the surrounding nations. 18 Each day one ox, six choice sheep and some poultry were prepared for me, and every ten days an abundant supply of wine of all kinds. In spite of all this, I never demanded the food allotted to the governor, because the demands were heavy on these people.

Following up on Nehemiah from Wednesday… This man saw the mission as so much larger than himself. He was given the authority of governor and the associated benefits like the allotted food, yet he never demanded his due. Think about some of the areas in your life where you demand what you’re due and take some time to reconsider it based on the mission of your life.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT: Buddhist monk, Thich Nhat Hanh, on life “When you are a young person, you are like a young creek, and you meet many rocks, many obstacles and difficulties on your way. You hurry to get past these obstacles and get to the ocean. But as the creek moves down through the fields, it becomes larger and calmer and it can enjoy the reflection of the sky. It’s wonderful. You will arrive at the sea anyway so enjoy the journey. Enjoy the sunshine, the sunset, the moon, the birds, the trees, and the many beauties along the way. Taste every moment of your daily life.” Burpees not explicitly mentioned but YHC grateful to have F3 and fellow PAX to enjoy the journey together.
