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


Good “R.E.D. Friday!” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters,” and all great connections. Welcome to the end of another week from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” on Day Ten of “Operation Costa Rica!” — 21 January 2022!


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


“Taking a nature walk is not uncommon for a leader. The natural surroundings of the outdoors and nature can really clear the mind and decrease negative thinking. Take time to bring your mind and awareness down to your feet, pause, and make that connection with the earth below you. Find out who you really are by feeling grounded." — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
