The “Colonel’s” VFV Motivational/Inspirational Quotes & Message of the Day!


“What day is it?”


Good “Wednesday & Hump Day!” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters,” and all great connections. Welcome from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in The Woodlands, TX — 15 June 2022!


Today’s Message is: “Heart Day!” Why Not?


Today's message and quotes were inspired by my beautiful wife on our anniversary today - Bella has one of the most beautiful and kind hearts!


“Great leaders will always have a heart for their people and care about them – it’s their way of connecting and demonstrating their compassion and empathy during challenging times. The culture, climate, and emotional environment and stability of the team can be activated and motivated by a leader with heart. Sometimes decisions have to be made with the heart instead of the mind. Are you ready to put people first, serve your community and create purposeful leadership that comes from the heart?” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

Good afternoon Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on. It is a good day. Our router had been hacked and messed up for a few days until it finally failed. It was swapped out today. In the past, my heart would have been unbelievably angry, but since following a close relationships with Jesus, my heart has softened immensely.

I really wish I knew. I do suspect who is doing it to me though. That’s a long story.
