Ok, so I'm super campsick right now. I guess it all started with my dream last night. I dreamt that I was back at my "home away from home", singing or should I say SCREAMING my head off with some "Boom-chicka-boom", and just enjoying my week-long time at the greatest place on the face of this planet! Oh how I miss it. I just can't believe that this summer will be my last year...as a camper that is. Can't wait for CILTS!!! Anyway, I'm sure to be balling my eyes out a closing campfire. It'll start somewhere around Dave in his tribal chief outfit talking about the Sagamore Creed, and will be in the full waterworks stage by the singing of "Welcome to the Family".
Welcome to the family, We're glad that you have come. To share your lives with us, As we grow in love and, May we always be to you, What God would have us be. A family always there, To be strong and truly loved.
May words of love be on our lips With everything we say. And may the spirit bless our hearts, And teach us how to pray. So that we might be, A true family.
Welcome to the family, We're glad that you have come. To share your lives with us, As we grow in love and, May we always be to you, What God would have us be. A family always there, To be strong and truly loved.
That song just makes me want to cry. I'm so happy to have been welcomed into the family with big loving arms. And because of my family at Camp Tecumseh, I have learned that God is first, others are second, and I AM THIRD!!!
So as I stand along that gravel road with tears rolling down my cheeks, holding a burning candle with a leather medallion around my neck, I'll just have to remember all the incredible memories I have of camp, and I will carry them with me as a Torchbearer all of my life.
Sorry about my ramblings. Only one person will truly understand this whole entry.
