We don't like to go out shoppin' We don't care what's on sale We just want to sit with a bag full of chips Watchin' the N.F.L. When you come over at half time An' say, "Does this dress fit too tight?" We just look you in the eye with a big fat lie An say, "Uh, uh, it looks just right" | Although they may give you a chuckle, it is sad to say they are more closer to the truth then we probably would like to admit.

As you ponder or chuckle, please note that in our session this week, we covered the distinct parts of our core - for example: Our Body (genetics & instincts), our Mind (learning & deciding), our Shadow (those negatives), our Soul (values & virtues) and our Self (our actions).
Now if what we have shared so far interests you, let us know (use our Comment button or the Contact Form) and we would be glad to respond to any questions or comments. Why? We assume you are not too unlike our men's group; that you have good intentions but are not yet living the life you want. To improve. . .
(Knight of the 21st Century)
cuts the cord to his 'spandex' ways, he develops his core strengths and faces his life's trials. He spiritually comes alive, leverages his faith and fights against the shadows in his life to enable the success he wants and what his family and friends are glad to see.
