I've seen your lineup of awards, be it...Tonja,<br /><br />I've seen your lineup of awards, be it for fun or for the good things that you do, and this one seems to truly reflect your principles and standards.<br /><br />I've read your blog, start to finish, along with the special stories of your sons, and I can't tell you how impressive are your credentials as a HUMAN BEING.<br /><br />I looked up two things which have also impressed me as guideposts, and they are the Boy Scouts' Oath and Law:<br />On my honor I will do my best <br />To do my duty to God and my country <br />. . . . .<br />To help other people at all times;<br />To keep myself physically strong, <br />mentally awake, and morally straight.<br />A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, <br />courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty,<br />brave, clean, and reverent. <br />----------------------------<br />And then there is the oath taken by knights, pledging their lives and sacred honor to their cause:<br /><br />Good and true, reverent generous, shield of the weak,<br />Obedient, courteous, champion of the Right and Good.<br />-----------------------------<br />I can think of only two people I know who personify all the precepts and moral codes of those two ideals. <br /><br /> I'm married to one of them, and I haven't met the other one yet, but I read her blog and her character every day.<br /><br />rachelRachelDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11204947567574886675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6466957025274689346.post-74250966612449974082009-10-01T16:46:50.439-05:002009-10-01T16:46:50.439-05:00You deserve it. Great job. I have a post coming ...You deserve it. Great job. I have a post coming up tomorrow with so many rewards I received today I could scream.
