"Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it." Mark Twain |
| » Word of the... |
Kind - having or showing a tender and considerate and helpful nature; used especially of persons and their behavior; agreeable, conducive to comfort; tolerant and forgiving under provocation. In our hectic daily lives, kindness is an easy quality to let slide. To overlook it seems trivial in our rush to accomplish what we set ourselves to do each day. On the freeway onramp, in the grocery store, in the cafeteria at school. We are presented with limitless opportunities to be kind, and often it is the quality we most often forget. We all have the ability to recognize this weakness, overcome it, to simply be kind. I myself have found that even when I think I'm doing something good, to be on a quest for what we think in our minds is "a better way", that it is easy to overlook the hard work of someone else. To trample on their ideas puts and put aside the ability to be kind to their thoughts, efforts, and ideals. So, work at it we must on a daily basis, to strive to be kind. For in the end, that is what will truly define us. I believe we all have that strength in ourselves. |

| So, how can YOU help ME? Easy, if you find a really cool website that will help our Troop, our Parents, or our Scouts to be better equipped, better trained, and better motivated Scouts, send me a link to the site you like. It can be anything from resources for Eagle Required Merit Badges, to really great equipment websites. Or, maybe you have a good link for cool campfire stories, or skits. Send 'em on over to me and I'll see about getting them on the website. Thanks, and I'll see you on the campouts, or meeting, or, most likely hauling Christmas Trees down the street during our annual Christmas Tree Pickup! |
