During the first few years there, I thought, " Oh if only these kids could keep to the rules like Canadian kids do". so maybe we're all a little biased: depending on our perspective. And depending on how difficult it all is for US to stay in control!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12673242.post-50385477525166140662008-07-16T01:24:00.000-05:002008-07-16T01:24:00.000-05:00i think a lot of what you wrote must also be simil...i think a lot of what you wrote must also be similar to our grownup positions on this earth. the north americans whine and take unfair shortcuts, and the latins just play ball.. so what is this summer thing? camp counselor? no matter what, i think it's great you are working with kids. i'd like to do that too..heidi nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15195838423286291447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12673242.post-10232783318699063382008-07-10T17:34:00.000-05:002008-07-10T17:34:00.000-05:00I think a lot of what you wrote must be similar to...I think a lot of what you wrote must be similar to how God sees us:<BR/>why do the fight, how can I get their attention, etc. I especially think that God must have some thought along the lines of "Also, I tried to figure out how to explain that games are fun when rules are followed. Breaking a rule ruins the whole imaginary universe you enter in to." However, he could drop the word imaginary! I used to wonder why I needed to "follow the rules" as a Christian.
