Thomas Cole paintings called The Voyage of Life. Where he paints (4) stages of life: Childhood, Youth, Adulthood and Old Age. Clear connection between age and happiness. There’s a drop from mid 40’s to mid 50’s. Highest points when we’re young, then picks back up as we enter Old Age. This is why we need F3, we’re all in the Age Slump. Thanks to all you men that have helped me cope with mid life struggles.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT: Tell the story of Valentinus, known as St. Valentine, who lived in Italy during the era of intense persecution of Christians. He was asked by a judge to pray for his blind daughter. He prayed and she gained sight, after which the judge converted to Christianity. Legend has it that he also performed a number of wedding ceremonies for Roman soldiers who were forbidden to marry. Eventually, he was sent to Emperor Claudius II who liked him until Valentinus tried to convince the Emperor to embrace Christianity, whereupon he was condemned to death. Upon the order of his death, Valentinus wrote a farewell to the girl whose sight he had attained and signed it “from your Valentine”. Valentine was then beaten with clubs and beheaded on Feb 14, 269. Hence the beginning of a tradition of sending a “valentine”. I appreciate Valentinus’s commitment to the Gospel and to offering love – which required a great deal of courage. So we conclude this beatdown in memory of St. Vallentine and prayed that we would demonstrate courageous love. Ended in prayer.

COT: Growing up YHC was raised by the rule…”work before play.” Whereas a generally good philosophy it ultimately materialized into the play part of the equation rarely occurring.

YHC recognized that enjoying the journey (play while working) and taking a moment to celebrate success is important and is intentional about doing that with M, adult children, team members, etc,

So…enjoy the journey today. Kids are out of school. Have a snowball fight, make a snowman, snow fort, etc. The shoveling can wait.
