My First Time

I my friends have never done this so it is indeed my first time. In fact, I haven't done a lot of things that I would like to try. This blog is not on the top of that list but, you have to roll with the punches and get the most out of whatever you're given. I hope everyone who reads this, if anyone does, has this same philosophy on life. Now onto what I believe blogging is.... spewing my ideas onto the internet for someone who has extra time to read it. Let's start with the greatest thing in my life. Scouting was the best thing that ever happened to be and I would suggest it to anyone under 18. My Eagle rank is good to have but, that was never my goal. I wanted to have some fun and that was about it. However as my first 2 years went by I learned what scouting is really about. It's about getting lifelong friends and learning to be a leader. It's not a destination but, a journey where at the end you happen to get eagle not because it was your goal but because you really earned it through your deeds and actions. For any scout who's reading this, if you have got your eagle and left without a backwards glance, please give back. Don't take peoples experiences then leave. Give back somewhere even if it's not scouting. There's a;ways someone to help.

  1. Good blog, Karl. You'll want to change the title to your name, and don't forget to write in the "about me" section in the layout view--that can count as your other post this week.
