Who is most worthy of leading you in your life...the crowd...or your soul?

To whom are you actually committed?

Head Up. No Exceptions.

We’re not always going to have our “A game.”

We’re going to make mistakes.

We’re going to feel like garbage from time to time.

It’s going to seem like we’re running into a brick wall every now and again.

No one can tell us how to exactly handle those moments… it’s on each of us to find what we need to keep going and push through.

However, the one thing all of us must do, without exception, is keep our head up. Both literally and figuratively.

Keep our heads up, literally, so our body language sends the signal that no matter how crappy a situation it didn’t get the best of us.

Keep our head up, figuratively, so we reinforce to ourselves that this is just a moment. We have pushed through similar challenges…this is no different.

When we put our heads down we are telling ourselves (and others) that we don’t have what it takes to fight through today and keep after it tomorrow.

Days don’t define us. Problems certainly do not. The long run is where it’s at and how we overcome adversity each time it unexpectedly arrives.

Stay after it and today’s problems will soon be a distant memory.

Quaker faith and practice are based on the confidence that the spirit of Christ is present to guide the individual and the worshipping group at all times, and that this guidance can be perceived inwardly.

THE LEADER UC & TS Top in Class Selection ▶ Elon Musk

Mars Vision Snapshot

A crewed mission to Mars could happen in 2029, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk hints.

A tweet on Monday comparing the moon landing to a future Mars landing attached a photo of the moon landing dated 1969, on top of an image of an envisioned Mars landing, labeled "20 --." The tweet, from Space_Hub, an account that posts about space and astronomy, read "What's your guess" and tagged Musk.

Two days after the tweet, Musk replied "2029."

Musk has long seen a visit to Mars as a goal. In 2016, he said he wanted to build a rocket capable of taking people to Mars and supporting a permanent city on the planet.

"It's something we can do in our lifetimes," he told an audience of 100,000 watchers at the International Astronautical Congress in Guadalajara, Mexico. "You could go."

But Musk's older predictions don't necessarily match up with his latest. In 2016, he told the Y Combinator, a startup accelerator, that getting a "meaningful number of people" on Mars was possible "in about 10 years, maybe sooner, maybe nine years."

Meanwhile, a joint Europe-Russia mission to Mars, called ExoMars, was suspended on Thursday due to the ongoing war in Ukraine. This rover mission, which is part of a two-part series, was set to launch in 2022.

The two-part mission was designed to investigate whether there is or ever was life on Mars.

"While recognising the impact on scientific exploration of space, ESA is fully aligned with the sanctions imposed on Russia by its Member States," the intergovernmental organization said in a release.
