We have met twice now in the past month to dive into the issues revolving around facing adversity. Every other Wednesday night a group of men meet to discuss obstacles we are facing in our lives. It's more than just "support" though. We have fun. There is nothing like a group of men spending good times together.
I occasionally look around at a restaurant and notice groups of men having fun together. Teen-agers after a game or practice, older men meeting for breakfast, fathers and sons, or guys laughing together at a bar. There have been times that I have felt like an excluded onlooker, but more and more I am realizing I may be in some of those groups others watch. It's a blessing for me. A lifelong dream fulfilled.

Facing adversity in our lives
"God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world." - C.S. Lewis
I hate this. If we are honest with ourselves, aren't we all in the same mindset? But swiching our mindset gives us opportunity to accelerate down the pathway of our journey.
A group of men have joined together to explore this area in life - in our own lives. We'll explore together what it is we are facing, and where we want to end up. Journeying together is a blast. Men don't always recognize this powerful dynamic in life, but we're having a good time.

Welcome
Welcome: This is a blog for men. Men on a journey. We have initially begun to create a communication tool for members of a small group of men who have banded together to learn how to face adversity in our lives.
We share views, post inspirational quotes, argue, offer support, and ... whatever.
Jump in! You'll be glad you did.
