COT

My 2nd Q of Thanks (Circle of Thanks…eh?) partially continued with a baseball theme. The larger message of the morning was that I was thankful to live in a country where we can all voice our ideas and opinions openly with each other. It might not seem like that in some situations, but the morning was filled with fun and meaningful mumble chatter where I learned more about some of the other PAX. I know for a fact that all of us there that morning and the gentlemen in my shield lock don’t think the same way about certain issues or ideals, but our goals are not to look for where we agree. It should be to find an atmosphere of mutual respect and growth.

Aye! – Invictus.
