Why I am a Guider (2)
>> Monday, June 07, 2010
Yes, I have been here before and it really is true.
This weekend was my Brownie Pack holiday.
"yes, you can, just take your time, wait for it to swing back"
"I CAN'T DO IT"
"I CAN'T DO IT"
"Yes, I think you can, try a little to the left"
"I CAN'T"
"you are doing, go on, go on, WELL DONE"
"BUT I CAN'T"
"other foot, yes, yes, go on, that's it, go on"
"Barn Owl, Barn Owl - I did it, I DID IT, I feel like a super star. I'm going to go and try all the things I didn't do before"
And the leader in the blue t-shirt is another of my little brownies that grew up into a fantastic Guider. I am so proud of all these girls that are growing and developing, I am excited that with them in the world the future looks bright.
I'm not a Guider for the easy hours, the power, the prestige.
I am a Guider because I want the world for our girls, a world they can
share and help to shape, a world of love and laughter.
I want them to feel the beauty of that world.
I want them to finish everything they start and to do it well.
I want to give opportunities for them to become women who will have
strength of character and compassion for others.
I want them to be the best they can be and to achieve their goals in
life.
In giving myself and my time I hope for a better world, through them.
