Overcoming Adversity and Challenges

RORY
So this for me is a good time to talk about this I recently just went to Clear Creek and really learned a lot about others and even myself. So our first day Doug says this is our family we need a name and chant and so we got together and couldn’t think of anything. We went through our day just like normal being kind of selfish and only thinking bout ourselves and not the tasks that lay ahead. We did many things and that day we never really connected and it really bugged me because we had a group of pure genius and love. So that night I really didn’t sleep because I wanted to know what we were missing it ate at me and so I thought and thought. I woke the next hour or later to my boy Antonio saying hey lets go I roll over and we wake a few the guys who want to come and we hike the biggest mountain in front of us. It hits me when we were on the top that we were missing compassion we only looked at the actual task not the marrow meaning. So after breakfast we all got together and I went around and told everyone what I saw and I think that opened us up and we got together and conquered the whole day. There it was we were the BEARCATS uh son what you know bout that? The rest of the time we were the BEARCATS no one could stop us. We got everything done with flying colors and other thing that few the guys and girls learned was to back flip and this takes lots of guts you have to trust others and yourself. So the first time I jumped back and than I just went for it and I did it uh son. After that the girls were like oh we can do this and sure enough we all started doing it. We all overcame our fear of trust and falling.
BEARCAT WRECKING BALL WE THE BEST WE NEVER FALL LIFE LINE TO THE WALL WE CAN DO IT ALL!!!! GO BEARCATS DOWN WITH BTBC!!
