Circle of Trust
The Titan Atlas was responsible for bearing the weight of the heavens on his shoulders, a burden given to him as punishment by Zeus.
When Atlas begged Zeus for mercy, he did not ask for the Kin of Olympus to lighten the weight of the world, he asked him to make his shoulders broader to be able to carry the heavy world better.
“Ask not for a lighter burden, but for a broader shoulders.”
Life is tough, but so are you.
Take this stance forward in life. When you are tired and you prayer to God for relief. We should not pray for God to make things easier, but we should pray to make us stronger to better handle the load. So we may run one more mile. Complete that task at work. Better support and protect our family.
Here is why. The good things in life…the positive and the success. It never comes during the easy times. No, the good things in life and achievement always comes as a result of struggle, perseverance, and character challenging events.
Stay focused, work hard, and when you ask for help, ask for help to be stronger and shoulder the load better.
Aye!
The group took a moment to pray silently on their own life issues.
Amen

Today was hard work Friday and no one at the Citadel was immune.
Big props to Small Cakes 2.0 Minnow who put in 45 minutes of hard work, never slowing down.
There was some good AAR post workout and it was absorbed. Always a pleasure to work with the Citadel PAX as they just work hard without question or complaint.
Laimbeer out!
