ANNOUNCEMENTS: AMBAB; Abominable Ruck Challenge.
COT: Filling gaps in your most important relationships. My challenge is making sure I’m current, relevant and vital with my spouse as we turn the corner toward empty nesting. The thought that it’s only going to be the two of you is sobering and is a big transition. Make sure you know that other person in the house – work on the relationship, invest in it.

CoT:
Often, we try to escape our emotions instead of feeling them. However, escape leads to self-medication, usually in unhealthy forms and deprives us of growth. We were meant to feel various forms of being sad, lonely, bored, and stressed as part of our human experience. Allowing these emotions to dwell in us may be uncomfortable, but it is key to learning to cope with them in healthy ways and improving ourselves. We need to learn to embrace our emotions, not escape them. Emotions are part of the human experience.
“Dr. Banner,” Captain America said, “Now might be a really good time for you to get angry.” “That’s my secret, Captain,” Dr. Banner replied, “I’m always angry.”

Bruce Banner had learned to embrace anger and control it, rather than trying to escape it and let it rule him.

“When you feel so mad that you could roar, take a deep breath and count to four.” – Daniel Tiger
