Remembering that in life we are on mission but it’s often hard to tell how and when we are making the biggest difference. All the more reason to remind ourselves that the most mundane parts of our life may often be where we are making the most difference. We’ve been watching the Mysterious Benedict Society which is about kids on mission in a world going the wrong way. It also gives a fanciful view of reality, which I think helps us remember that the life we are living is pure magic.

Deacon reminded us about the importance of gratitude for the things we have, which helps us not to get obsessed with other addictions to bring us “happiness.”

Thinking ’bout death. I had a very smart student once who would argue with me that we should be pouring more human resources into trying to stop aging and death. I argued that ultimately that would enhance human selfishness. If it was possible to avoid death then we would become very selfish, protecting ourselves at all costs from accidentally dying.

In the movie Dr. Strange the Ancient One says to Dr. Strange that death is what gives life meaning. While I don’t believe this ultimately true, it is true that the certainty of our death gives us an opportunity to live unselfishly with our lives, potentially even giving our life for others.

More Go30 goals were mentioned. Deacon wants to work out 6 times per week. Dad Joke wants to improve the form on his exercise, like Merkins.

Also, we took prayer requests and prayed for people

Go30 check in. May wasn’t a great month, but we’re making new goals for the end of June. Output is shooting for 2020, Mad Dog is going for 10 merkins each morning.

Output shared about a balloon analogy that was used at a school. The kids wrote their name on a balloon and the whole school threw their balloons in the hall. They were told to find their balloon. No easy task, but then they were told to find someone else’s. Putting ourselves first in all things doesn’t always work. If we help others first, we’ll find that others will help us.

Output prayed for us as well.

G.K. Chesterton says that anything worth doing is worth doing badly. Although it is true that anything worth doing is worth doing well his point is that we shouldn’t be afraid to take risks, try new things, and doing things that we love doing even if we aren’t that good at them. Amateurs “love” what they do.

People also shared prayer requests.

Output and Mad Dog have some heavy things, Fishman has more home duties this week. Ghost wants to move in same direction with wife.

Mosey to set coupons up at meadow trail cutoffs

Continue mosey into forest across creek to tall grass and back

The Thang

6 station circuit around meadow trail, run in between stations

20 merkins, 20 coupon swings, 20 big bois, 20 bonnie blairs (hard count), 20 coupon rows, 10 burpees. Repeat circuit for time.

One catch. The bluetooth speaker (playing salsa) needs to go back and forth across the meadow shortcut between the two coupon stations. Whoever arrives at the station and finds the speaker there must start lunge walking (holding it over their heads) across the short cut and then continue circuit from where they drop it off.

Guest CoT from Tree Trunk.

Tree Trunk shared about efforts to improve communication in his family and at work. It often takes effort that he doesn’t feel like putting in to establish and maintain healthy communication. He has the tools, but doesn’t always feel like using them. But he wants to put in the work because he knows it makes a difference, especially as a man with a big family and lots of kids.

Revolution shared about the difference between peacekeepers (passive) and peacemakers (active)

Deacon shared about communicating well even others aren’t doing a good job of communicating. It is important the we keep good communication even when others aren’t
