A Scout is:

• Trustworthy,
• Loyal,
• Helpful,
• Friendly,
• Courteous,
• Kind,
• Obedient,
• Cheerful,
• Thrifty,
• Brave,
• Clean,
• and Reverent.

Really!?

Are each of you all of these things all of the time, or some of these most of the time? Probably not. I can think of several boys who demonstrated "not-helpful" this last weekend.

The reality is that scouts and adults strive to be these things.

We often fail to meet our own standards or those of others, but the important thing is not that we fail, but that we get back up and try again.

So maybe it should read A scout is trying to be...

Thank you and good night scouts
