IF...
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about , don't deal in lies,
Or, being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;
IF you can dream- and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with triumph and disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to be broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn out tools;
IF you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the will which says to them: "Hold on"
IF you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings- nor lose the common touch;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run-
Yours is the earth and everything thats in it,
And - which is more- you'll be a Man, my Son!
By Rudyard Kipling;

A few of the guys( sorry other people its all we had)
Me(Daniel)
Grant...
Tom...
Luke... On the Battlefield, when surrounded and cheered by pomp, excitement, and admiration of devoted comrades, and inspired by strains of martial music and the hope of future reward, it is comparatively easy to be a Hero, to do Heroic deeds. But to uphold Honor in ordinary circumstances, to be a hero in common life, that is a Genuine achievement meriting our highest Admiration. (Booker T. Washington)
Prepare your selves for WAR!
make every shot count boys! filling the guns with .68 paintballs
Time is short... we are at the ready... it is close at hand.
getting ready! The Only thing we have to Fear is Fear Itself (Franklin D. R.)
As we prepare ourselves for Battle, loading guns, checking air, making sure we are ready for what is to come... Your breath comes in short burst as you move forward, not quite sure where your enemy is. you listen, look, waiting for something to move... expecting at any minute things to start flying at you head... you see movement someone is try to flank you... you stop back trace your steps moving slowly... knowing he's close. It's kill or be killed, you move on, gun at the ready... there you see him... you take aim... catch you breath and wait till the moment comes... bang, bang, bang, he tries to return fire but to late your paint has already claimed its victim. he moves off, gun pointed to the sky (meaning he was dead) and you move off towards your next target, glad that you where not the one walking away....
Put on the Whole Armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil! Eph. 6:11
COURAGE; The footstool of the Virtues, upon which they Stand. (Robert L. Stevenson)
Paint Ball!
Tom and I plan our next move!
Walking out tho the "Island" our base, even though we all mainly played at the other base!
What a deadly looking Group! 8 guys, locked, loaded, and ready to GO!!!!!!
Tom and I move in with stealth... soon after Stuart took 2 shoots to the back of the head from me... 1 man down 2 to GO!Better to Die a thousand Deaths, than wound my honor. (Joseph Addison)

boys and men!
Guys what are you doing to grow up! what are you doing to prepare your self! what have you done to better yourself for the future! if you can answer these good if not maybe you should start! hey we all have problems, we all have demons, and that extra baggage that wont leave... I'm not saying I'm all perfect either I'm still growing too... but do i think i have some what of a handle on life yes a bit... but its not me saying it its other people. My boss trust me to run a truck by my self, to sell the job, even run the business when hes gone! my Dad and I have come along way, in what I do and what he lets me do. they both trust me to make the right choices, to do the right thing. trust and respect are earned and maintained! not something to play with! One of the best things a young man can do is find a buddy, Dad, close companion(a guy) who they can start to build a good, strong, relationship, built on Christ. They hold each other up, carry the other when weak, strikes the blow when the friend needs a "wake up call" Some one to be truthful with. And the biggy to start Praying with them every day about anything, problems that come up..... I pray with 3 other guys each morning, and they in turn pray with others, Ive been trying them to grow with more people... It is a great blessing to us all
try it!
"money" how much are you spending! how much are saving.... hey there is a lot out there that we all want lol I want things too! but how are we using GOD'S money that HE has entrusted us with? uh! are you a hard worker will you support your family, or are you Lazy! "money don't grow on trees!" lol but its True you may think that your bringing in a lot of money now! but wait till your married, your bills keep coming, house, gas, food! its all there to eat that money right up! Debt what are you views on that? You should have plans to get out of Debt as soon as possible.... granted things happen, jobs, and stuff but what are you doing to prepare!
Being a Leader! can you lead your family! teach them the true word of God, teach your child to obey, to love, to follow God.... can you be the head of the house! "With great power, comes Great responsibility" the bible says we will be judge by the way we raise our family. we should strive to be the servant, yes its hard, I know I get tired and worn out... but we must push on. How we treat our sisters and Mom will greatly Reflect how we treat our wives! do we care and love for them, hold doors, look out for their interest more then our selves!
The way we act! granted we may act different then others, or not come over as this or that. But are we acting Mature, grown up? How would God be standing next to you( cause he is!) yes we can laugh and play. but there's a lot to being more mature then those around you! our world does not want to grow up, to take responsibility of their actions. but we Must, they are ours to command!
For Me I strive to better my self, with what i put into my head, ( what goes in, comes out and shows the true man!) work hard, save for the future. build a money plan, run my own business, buying rental properties, ect. ect these are things I'm working on now, think money wise, down the road , money for children. build a better relationship with God. become more giving of my self, humble, a servant... the way you look at a girl... like a sister! how do you treat her? hey some time it can come across wrong or "Whats wrong with him" lol but wheres the heart at... bible studies learning more, memorising verses... mom keeps telling me more books I should read... the list never ends.... and many other things great and small... it all leads up to the future becoming who we are, what we are! I could go on and on, I probably didn't say all I should say mmm or to much lol so Strive on boys and become the Men we should Be.
What are you doing?
