Happiness is event-specific, joy is everlasting and not dependent on the moment. They explained that fun is doing some- When you hear the thing you enjoy without the detrimental effects of negative results. word fun, what thoughts come to mind? Is it an activity? A memory? Does it remind you of a certain person? Whatever it is, the journey For most of us, the fun we were accustomed to was born out for fun is rooted in the search for one of two things: Happiness or of selfish desires. This group of men discovered a whole new kind of joy. The Webster’s defines fun as: 1) Lively, joyous play or pleasure. fun that was born out of wholeness. Brian brilliantly said—If I can’t 2) A soiree of amusement—intended for pleasure. The etymology of have fun in life and I’m miserable, I put myself at risk of going back to the word fun dates back to the late 1600s to early 1700s. It was used the old life. God doesn’t want us to abstain from fun, He just wants to describe a hoax or a joke. With fun being one of our 10-Driving us to change the way we view fun and change the way we experience Values, it raises a question: What is the true definition of fun? fun from a selfish pursuit—to a selfless pursuit. Mike shared his three things he believes to be imperative for success and finding genuine On Friday, August 19th, the class of Famous Fall 2016 was fun: 1) Surround yourself with positive people; 2) Maturity.; getting privileged to welcome Brian Kelly and two guests—Mike Lion and older and wiser; 3) Tethering yourself to a good woman. I believe the Josh Jones. They came to speak about fun and help break down with key is also following these steps in that exact order. us the definition of fun.

Jesus Proverbs 28:1. It was within this group that these three men really was accused of being a glutton and sinner. began to understand that fun is rooted in joy—not happiness. They He clearly enjoyed His life that He lived. He was chastised for not reinforced the need for fun in both work and personal life. They living a monastic existence. Even his disciples were authorized by shared with us of how the pursuit of happiness is often temporary Him to break the rules. Jesus was having way too much fun for the religious observers who watched Him with disdain; they seem to have been envious. Is it possible to be a genuinely good individual and indulge in the pleasures of life? Sometimes, we forget that God created the world for many pleasures and enjoyment. The Garden of Eden was a garden of pleasure—not of obligation. God put man into a deep sleep, took a rib from his side, and created woman. This was not because men didn’t have enough re- sponsibility, but because God saw how He could enhance man’s en- joyment of living. The scriptures tell us that God concluded that it wasn’t good for man to be alone. Laced within the concept of good- ness are enjoyment, pleasure and especially fun. We were created to enjoy God’s world, and the world was created not only to declare the glory of God, but to satisfy our desires and meet our needs. From the design of our planet’s atmosphere to the atoms of a cup of coffee, creation is here for our good and pleasure. As Brian, Mike and Josh shared with us, I realize that when we replace greed with generosity, we exchange a black hole of tem- porary happiness with a wellspring of joy. The goal isn’t so much to have less, but to give more. Generosity is the result of a life in the continuous overflow of fun. It is the exponential result of wholeness. The simple act of sharing their time and wisdom with our class, re- sulted in a morning of fun and fulfillment. I believe every man left the room that morning with a better perspective of fun and a clear vision of what it means to seek joy in life. XII grasped, what really matters, such as integrity, kindness, love and faithfulness? Often times, an individual is absolutely oblivious to the fact that they are physically infirmed until enlightened by a physician and offered treatment. And so, it is similar with a man’s character. We are ignorant to the existence of character flaws that can seriously impede our growth and shed ghastly graveyard light upon our cul- ture. A candid assessment by those who’ve perceived our actions and attitudes—can be an invaluable tool to our development. With objective outlooks and humility, we gain insight through our peer’s evaluation. We can fine-tune ourselves to coincide with the desired standard; what we aspire to achieve. PEP is undeniably a culture of its very own. This fact rings particularly true on the unit and within the dorms as we are intermixed with nonparticipants and required to lead by example without succumbing to temptations or demonstra- tions of negative behavior. We as men living between the wings of Moral character boundless future, must have in our deeds—a standard of distinction. is an evaluation of a individual’s stability and qualities.

  • The American Claimant by Mark Twain
    The American Claimant By Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens) 1 EXPLANATORY The Colonel Mulberry Sellers here re-introduced to the public is the same person who appeared as Eschol Sellers in the first edition of the tale entitled "The Gilded Age," years ago, and as Beriah Sellers in the subsequent editions of the same book, and finally as Mulberry Sellers in the drama played afterward by John T. Raymond. The name was changed from Eschol to Beriah to accommodate an Eschol Sellers who rose up out of the vasty deeps of uncharted space and preferred his request--backed by threat of a libel suit--then went his way appeased, and came no more. In the play Beriah had to be dropped to satisfy another member of the race, and Mulberry was substituted in the hope that the objectors would be tired by that time and let it pass unchallenged. So far it has occupied the field in peace; therefore we chance it again, feeling reasonably safe, this time, under shelter of the statute of limitations. MARK TWAIN. Hartford, 1891. 2 THE WEATHER IN THIS BOOK. No weather will be found in this book. This is an attempt to pull a book through without weather. It being the first attempt of the kind in fictitious literature, it may prove a failure, but it seemed worth the while of some dare-devil person to try it, and the author was in just the mood. Many a reader who wanted to read a tale through was not able to do it because of delays on account of the weather.
