• Where there are knots, there is growth
• Wisdom grows from our experiences
• See the beauty that is drawn from our imperfections
• Character is reflected in how we shape our lives
• Rugged places can build depth and empathy
• Hold on to positive values to avoid holes
• We are stronger when we come together
• Enjoy the quirky things in life
• Build a strong base connection to meet each day
• Surround yourself with positive influences
• There is beauty in a life well-lived
• Stand tall and support and learn from each other
• Sink yourself deeply in God’s Word
• God is our secure connection to life and being
