Today’s theme was “be fully present“. It is easy to rush through exercises (or life) and not appreciate the moment we are in. When we unpack the details that make up the big picture, we see so much more. The Q encouraged the Pax to reflect on each moment that makes up their day and not miss out on the things that matter, God, family, and friends.

C.O.T. & Name-a-rama 

The Q shared personal antidotes about the challenges of being fully present when the world works hard to distract us with busyness. Nails & the Q mentioned the Jabberwocky CSAUP event scheduled for June 18 at Jesse Wharton Elementary. The hope of this event is that the Pax will attempt to complete at least one Murph and breakthrough self-set barriers.
