you guys,
i believe in girl scouting so much.
so.
very.
much.

and i believe in the power and guidance of the earth.

with the strength of serene lake's pond and majestic challenger mountain and the support of people like Ellen Tuzzolo and Mary Diffendale i can find my ground anywhere and with anything.

like Nic said in her show last night the 3 rules her brother taught her about skiing which she also applied to her life
1. stand strong
2. if you fall down get up again
3. trust yourself.

i learned the same lessons at camp little notch.

the sacred earth combined with
the comradery of peers combined with
the support of role models combined with
a true dedication to empowering women

is an irreplaceable and continually important asset to this world and to remove it would be the greatest disservice i can think of to the women of tomorrow.
