  • Being who you are

    Being who you are

    A new spin of an old story. You may have heard of the story about the scorpion and the turtle. The scorpion who wanted to get across the lake knew that he had a problem. The scorpion could not swim. Knowing his weakness he sought out someone with the strength of swimming. By the waters edge he saw a turtle. “Mr Turtle could you give me a ride across the lake.” The turtle knowing the nature and the strength of the scorpion replied “I can, but I will not because you will sting me and I will die.” The scorpion replied “Mr Turtle why would I do that for if I sting you I will drown and die.” The turtle being enlightened said “That is true. I will ....

  • Who Will Remember

    Who Will Remember

    Dare to be remembered by investing your time into those who matter. Think not of the haters, the only thing that they do well is hate. Think not of those who betrayed you, they live the life of the lonely for they are loyal to no one. Do not give a second to those who waste their valuable time speaking behind your back because they lack the courage to speak with you. Instead, Spend your time holding the hand of your child, for one day as your child gets older your hand they may no longer want. Hug your spouse because tomorrow is promised to no one so celebrate this gift today. Say yes to the walk to the park today for one day your child will walk without you. Be ....

  • It's Not Me, It's You

    It's Not Me, It's You

    Honor and respect. These two words seem to be neglected in today's society. It use to be said and thought before placing a thought into action "Is it moral and is it ethical." Today it seems more people work under the motto "Is it legal and can I get away with it." What does this have to do with respect and honor? A lot. We expect our youth to have and demonstrate those traits when they grow up without us demonstrating them. We are quick to critique another...behind backs or via social media, yet we deny or fail to say that same thought in person. In that where is the honor and respect? When I speak to you about my difference in opinion it is not to win you over to my side. I ....

  • R.I.P.

    R.I.P.

    An old companion of mine has died. He has been with me for a long time. Through many of the trials in my life he was there. When venturing out into the world, he was there. When focusing upon improving myself, he was there. When fear took hold of me, he was there. When I would not accomplish my dream, my goal, my task, my mission, he was there. Now, he has died. I do not mourn him. I will not miss him. I am thankful he is gone. He is: self doubt It doesn't matter to me if others doubt me. They will be believers when they see all that I have accomplished. But to doubt yourself means there will never be the positive for others to speak of because by doubting yourself ....

  • Be By Yourself

    Be By Yourself

    There is a difference in being alone and being by yourself. Sometimes you need to remember to Be Yourself. This often requires time for you to be By Yourself. In those times you can reflect on who you truly are when no one is around and who you should remain to be even in the midst of many. In these times of reflection you are not alone, you are not lonely, you are not deserted. You have chosen time FOR YOU TO BE WITH YOU by rediscovering who you truly are. Maybe it’s time for you to BE YOURSELF, and just for a moment be BY YOURSELF and simply breathe. This is not a call for isolation, but one of restoration. To restore, you must first remember where it is ....

  • Where is your focus?

    Where is your focus?

    Many people talk about what use to be. It is easier for them to speak of "back when" because they typically are speak of how great things were then. This comparison is typically done due to their view of the present and how they disagree with the way things are now. Normally, these are the people who complain much, but do little in present time, outside of complaining, to make today better. Some talk about what could be. These people are a little more optimistic. They too see a decline compared to how things use to be, but they do believe that things could be better. Still, their direct involvement in making today and tomorrow are better place remains limited. Others talk about ....

6 Little Blessings

"Hello hello!! It's late and I'm tired!! It's been a BUSY Saturday!! And I only have 2 kids asleep (Now 3 because I have been getting Summer down while this...multitasker) This morning I took my crew to free anti-abduction training that I saw advertised.

My expectations were low but I was seriously blown away by our experience. A BIG shout out to Master "C" he was extremely professional, polite, kind, respectful, responsive & really passionate about teaching our young people tricks & tips in case of someone attempting to kidnap your child.

 

I have been looking for something like this for YEARS!! Master "C" is active in District 11 schools and helping today's youth learn personal safety and protection!! AMAZING!!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND CFMAF martial arts & fitness"

“Master C. I have a testimonial for you. Last night while at work I was giving an MP (Military Police) a hand with his baton or ASP because he disassembled it. Just as I put it together another MP was escorting a soldier to our interview room and was taking the handcuffs off but he exposed his weak side and the soldier took his ASP away from him. I heard the MP call for back up and with the baton still in my hand I ran in and the soldier attacked me with a high strike. Without hesitation I blocked it with my ASP, trapped his arm, hit him across the stomach under the arm and ripped the baton out of his hand. Then he was rushed by about 4 other officers. So thanks for the instruction on stick fighting last week. It is still fresh in my mind so all of the movements were smooth and without hesitation.”

“Went to YMCA (by my house) since we had a delay with D20 to work out and as I was leaving – one of the managers stopped me and said how good I was looking and the workouts here (meaning the Y) were really paying off. I smiled and said – yes – I get in on occasion here but this body is by CFMA with very insistent instructors! He looked surprised and started laughing at the use of my word ‘insistent’ –

Anyway – when folks notice I’m getting into shape – I have ya’ll to thank.

See ya’ll Friday if we don’t have another snow day!”
