How to Walk the Tightrope that Allows You to be Humble and yet Still hold Your Head Up Filled with Pride – Step 9

WE STAND UP AND TELL IT LIKE IT IS –

“Strong, confident, 
and well-rounded peo-
ple  have  formed  values 
and principles to live by and 
believe  deeply  in  their  right-
ness.  Such  people  live  what 
they believe and share those 
beliefs  with  others  in  a
non-critical  way  when 
asked.”  (It Works,
How and Why, 

p.45)

“This is for all of 
those still in the mil-
itary who are languish-
ing – not  able  to  come
out to themselves … so
I hope that this real-
ly stiffens their
spines”

The Cows and The Lion.

There was a village near a jungle. The village cows used to go up to the jungle in search of food.

In the forest there lived a wicked lion. He used to kill a cow now and then and eat her. This was happening for quite sometime. The cows were frightened.

One day, all the cows held a meeting. An old cow said, “Listen everybody, the lion eats one of us only because we go into the jungle separately. From now on we will all be together”.

From then on all the cows went into the jungle in a herd. When they heard or saw the lion all of them unitedly moo and chased him away. (http://www.english-for-students.com/The-Cows-and-The-Lion.html)

    That marine kissing his sarg in the DADT video cracked me up big time. I bet if I was a marine I’d feel pretty proud I could kiss my Sargent and not feel like I committed a mortal sin.
