Sharing
Dear Rovers,
If you guys have anything to share about Rovering in general, feel free to write about it on this blog rather than having to wait for a round table meeting. Our experiences as discussed last week, help to mould the crew in small incremental steps which is a good thing.
I guess I'll start the ball rolling first since I have effectively "arrowed" myself.
Granted my absence from today's campfire is a disappointment. I've some commitments that I'm unable to get away from so apologies for that. But that is a lesson in itself that I wish to impart to all of you.
The importance of weighing the pros and cons thoroughly.
Granted, I could have shirked my commitments and attended the campfire but the consequences would have been an irate (angry) set of parents.
On one hand, like Bee mentioned, this campfire would serve as a great way to introduce the crew to the District. But on the other, filial piety is a value championed by our own founding father. After all, I still have to live in this house for the forseeable future and it would be good to maintain a harmonious environment right?
My case is a tad stupid. But it has its merits.
As you grow older and come to grasp the importance of becoming an adult, there's that sickening realisation that you've got to use your brains a bit more. No longer are you able to shrug off a decision made in the spur of the moment; like you going to spend a lot of cash on a new phone because your parents will back you up. No, now you've got to carefully weigh your finances. No point blowing all your hard-earned dough and not having money to eat at all right?
As Rovers we're growing up to be full-fledged adults. I hope that when you eventually leave the service to seek greener pastures, we have inculcated a Rover that weighs his options carefully and thus, is able to be held accountable for his actions.
Regards,
R Bear (National Serf)
