This came to me from my Wood Badge counselor. It has been over three
years since I completed my ticket and he is still helping me by offering
sound advice. Maybe it will help you get through today.
YiS,
-- Calvin H. Gray Scoutmaster, Troop 405 Associate Advisor, Venturing Crew 405 Georgetown, Texas I used to be an Owl (WM-62-2-98 @ Philmont) http://www.troop405.org/ ********** Today is Wednesday. Just in case you're having a rough day, here is a stress management technique recommended in all the latest psychological texts. The funny thing is that it really works. Sit in a quiet place. Make sure you will not be disturbed. Loosen any tight clothing. Picture yourself near a Philmont stream, maybe the Rayado. Birds are softly chirping in the cool mountain air. No one but you knows your secret place. You are in total seclusion from the hectic place called the world. The sun is glistening off the gently swaying pine branches. You are safe. You are quiet. The soothing sound of a gentle waterfall fills the air with a cascade of serenity. The mountain water is crystal clear. You can easily make out the face of the person you're holding under the water. ------------------------------------------------------- Scouting E-mail Discussion Lists @ usscouts.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe at http://usscouts.org/lists/ Listserv Commands at http://usscouts.org/lists/lc.asp ------------------------------------------------------- Send listserv commands to: listserv@troop47.com Send postings to: philmont@troop47.com List FAQ found at: http://usscouts.org/lists/faq.asp List Administrator: philmont_owner@troop47.com ------------------------------------------------------- As you gather around this virtual campfire with fellow Scouts and Scouters, do your best to be trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent. -------------------------------------------------------
