One of the things I hate seeing most in my job is when people get in their heads, let doubt creep in, and can’t handle the silence in the woods. It isn’t supposed to be easy. Learn to suffer, persevere, and don’t make the decision for us. There are always good kids who go home early, not because we didn’t choose them, but because doubt and the unknown became too heavy a burden to bear. <\/p>\n

As a reminder, Lunch Box Quotes are notes I include in the kids\u2019 lunches every day. Number 1 gets a text, and 2-4 get handwritten napkins.<\/p>\n
