Up Pacquiao, Down Tiger

Up Pacquiao
Voted 2009 Male Athlete of the Year (worldwide) was a little 5'6" 138lb boxing champ, Manny Pacquiao, a faithful husband, father of four, Christian and a hero to his (my native) country, the Philippines.

Down Tiger
Pacquiao's character is unlike the Athlete of the Decade, Tiger Woods, unfaithful husband, father, Buddhist American. As a Filipino-American and a former NCAA athlete scholar, I celebrate the best of the Philippines and continue to pray for my adopted, beloved country, America!

Resolve
In light of the above, this year: Resolve not to allow present temporal conditions reign over you. Do not allow current and changing atmospheric conditions cloud your eternal perspective. REE (Psalm 51:8-9.
