COT: In this life there are many negative influences bringing people down, including social media, marketing campaigns, etc. YHC encouraged the PAX to pay closer attention to those around them, and to find small yet meaningful ways to bring joy to those around them. One easy way is to give people words of encouragement. These are small and easy gestures that can have profoundly positive impacts on people’s lives. YHC thanked the HIMs for joining him on this windy day. Great work, men!
