Self-Discipline: Be the Boss of Yourself

Wednesday, June 19, 2013 by Arianne Foulks

Good habits are worth being fanatical about

Like many (many!) of us, you may feel like there is not enough time in a day. Maybe you've become stressed or disappointed in yourself for not making the best use of that time?

Every Summer Has A Story, But This One Is More LIke A Novel

When I was in 5th Grade, I got to go to summer camp for the first time. With a mixture of fear and excitement, I ventured away from home for two weeks to “rough-it” camp style.

And now thinking back --the bonfires, s'mores, singing, the big skies, the water, the friends-- those were magic times.

Letters from camp

Thursday, June 13, 2013 by Colleen Attara

Let's pretend we are all away at camp together. The air is crisp and a cool lake breeze blew gently through our cabin’s while we slept.  After the very deepest sleep, we awake feeling so rested.

We are all perfectly … [Read more...] about Letters from camp
