Tonight we’ve spent a lot of time talking about the four food groups we need to be healthy. And w~ve looked up some recipes using those food groups.
I hope you'll remember what you have learned when we go on our campout at the end of the month because I'm getting tired of hamburgers and hot dogs.
But just as a balanced diet of foods is vital for your physical health, a balanced diet of activities is vital for your mental and spiritual health. You all know by now that if you ate nothing but potato chips, candy, and soda you would not stay healthy very long. The same idea applies to your activities.
If you did nothing but play sports all the time and neglected your school work, your religious duties, your Scouting, and other activities with friends, you might be a good ballplayer, but that's all. You would not make any progress mentally, spiritually, or as a person who is a pleasure to be around.
Well, you might say, I love sports. Fine. Play them-and play for all you're worth. But remember that life has many satisfactions beside sports. Don't shut yourself off from them by spending all your time in one activity.
Join a school club. Become active in your church's youth group. Come to every troop meeting and activity. Take full advantage of school; don't just do enough work to get by. And play sports.
You can do it all, and if you do I think you'll enjoy life even more than you do now.
