August 28, 2004

A short while ago someone was trying to find my biggest temptation, she didn't. However she did tell me something before she gave in for the night, "I think I've found the one person who's will I can't bend or morals break." I thanked her, of course, but knew that there was a way to get to me. But why is it that she has only now found someone like that? 
 
Last night I sat around a campfire singing songs with one of my best friends. Through our voices I could hear true passion in a few of the campfire songs we sang; One Tin Soldier, Say Why, On My Honour, and Pink Pajamas. Now, Pink Pajamas has nothing to do with anything except to express our passion for guiding. The rest, however, each have a message that grew to be morals in the hearts of two young guides. 
 
Greed slaughters a people, justice is served and no reward is given to those who are mean. One Tin Soldier is all that remains of greed in my childhood campfire buddies. We learned that song around a fire, then lived it's morals in the real world. Always sharing with others and caring for all that surrounds us. 
 
"Say why do we have to say goodbye? Say when, will we ever meet again? Say where, and I'll meet you right there." After Guide's Own we said goobye with a smile, for pouting changed nothing. We were taught to think ahead, to plan and be optimistic of our futures. We never let go, for stepping out of our circle meant leaving friends behind. 
 
"My honour is try, and my duty is to love." Those who live this song lend a hand without hesitation, it is our honour to try. With the songs we've tucked awaywe help to cure hearts, and with our hands ready we jump to any task. It is our duty to love. What we do to others reflects upon ourselves, we aim to help others and in turn ourselves. We are always willing to be a friend. 
 
Are these my morals? These are only songs I live. Why she can't break me? Because I'm stubborn and can only be hit through others. 
 
*hugs* 
 
Make new friends and keep the old, 
One is silver and the other's gold. 
A circle's round and has no end, 
That's how long I want to be your friend.

If I recall, that one time where we had a party at your place and the girls were all over Steve while the rest of the guys were in the tub (except Biff)
If I recall, you weren't exempt from what they were doing...

I win

In the end, right overcomes wrong. in the song "One Tin Soldier", the people of the mountain, though they die, win because their treasure teaches the people of the valley that what they did is wrong. In my mind, I don't think the people of the valley ever plundered treasure from anyone again. So,in that sense, right triumphed over wrong.

And you, you are BEYOND stubborn. but that's ok because you're stubborn for the right reasons.

now they stood beside the treasure,
on the mountain dark and red,
Lift the stone, look beneath it...

Peace on earth... was all it said
.

Peace on earth

Biff

She can't break you not because you're stubborn, but because you know the difference between right and wrong.
