Spread the Sunshine

Thursday, August 17, 2017            QIC – Uptown Girl

Another great day in Paradise! Your Humble Companion (YHC) arrived at the flag pole at 5:30 am; after EH’ng Florin (another guy from Ethopia) who Ubered me to the Park from The Cosmopolitan.  It’s an $8.00 Uber ride versus a $25 cab ride. Think about it!    The best $8.00 spent in this town.

I spotted a guy who I saw on Tuesday who was doing some flying squirrel exercise across the infield.  I said this is a perfect F3 candidate.  Come to find out he is a porter at Caesars.  This 58 year old brother packs his workout clothes everyday and as soon as his shift is over (5am) he heads to the park for a workout.  Turns out he knows a few people.  While I was talking to FNG, Motown rolls in ready to give it another go.  After admitting to splashing merlot after 30 minutes into his first workout; he was back for more.  He said, “I need this!”   I told him, you are the reason I am doing  this.  Where else can you find a man; who is ready to change his life for the better and be supported by his brothers.  No strings attached!

Warma-O-Rama

Mosey to down the ramp.  Stop at the benches.  Step-ups, Dips, Sungods, Abe Vagoda, Monkey Humpers, Merkins, Derkins, Mountain Climbers, SSH, Seal Jacks, and maybe some other stuff that got us warmed up and sweating.

Mosey to mid-field!  For Part 2!  Sett up two water bottles 25 yards apart.  Motown had to bolt to pick up his daughter.  We prayed him out.  About 2 minutes later a young women approached us wanting to join  us, she was friend of FNG.  I explained this is a men’s only group, no offense, however, some men would be less likely to participate if women were working out with group.  She understood; however, her heart was saddened.  I told her that I would introduce her to FIA (Females In Action); which is a sister organization.  Since she was a close personal friend of FNG, 75% through workout, and no other men would be discouraged or distracted by her participation I invited her to join us for this one time.

CoT – Thank God for bringing us the goodnews and a glourious brand new day.  There are men and women all of this great land that need a group of people who want to encourage the improvement of others physically, relation-ally, and spiritually.

Reflection  – Thank God I was rocking a Tony Robbins conference from 9am to 11:30 pm yesterday.  Did you know that prostitution is legal in Clark County (Las Vegas).  Let’s be real.  There is so much sin that easily entangles (Hebrews 12: 1-3).   Many a great man have fallen to lust.  Because it’s legal, does that mean it’s ok?  Did God really say, no to eat from this tree? .
