THESE TEN RESOLUTIONS ARE BASED ON THE TEN RESOLVES OF SCOUTING
ANGELA & I WERE INVOLVED WITH THE SCOUT MOVEMENT WHEN YOUNG !
1. TRUSTWORTHY ~ We all need to be Trusted & to Trust OTHERS
2. LOYAL ~ We need to be Loyal to our Families ~ Employers & Country
3. HELPFUL ~ WE should never be too BUSY to help OTHERS
4. BROTHERLY ~ We should treat OTHERS as our Brothers & Sisters
5. COURTEOUS ~ We should show RESPECT to OTHERS in all circumstances
6. KIND ~ Society is becoming more Selfish & Aggressive ~ show KINDNESS
7. OBEDIENT ~ If we all obeyed Law & Order ~ We*d have a Better World
8. CHEERFUL ~ Count your Blessings ~ it will make you SMILE
9. THRIFTY ~ HAPPINESS is *Living within ones ASSETS* ~ AMEN !
10. PURE in Body & Mind ! Always be in control of ONES ACTIONS !
Thanks for reading ~ comments welcome ~ LOVE for 2020 🧡💙🧡
Many of us have been members of the International Scout Movement
and are familiar with these TEN RESOLVES ! Characteristics which
make LIFE better for everybody. We used to renew them every Year
to remind ourselves how we should react in SOCIETY to bring Honour
to the SCOUT MOVEMENT & Our Country. We think they still form a
Positive Basis for our GENERAL RESOLUTIONS in 2020.
The PICTURE is borrowed from MICHAEL EDWARDS Poem for today !
It reminded US of how 2020 looks at the START of the YEAR ... BUT
if we put the TEN RESOLUTIONS into PLACE all abstractions will be
RESOLVED ! Love Joy & Peace to ALL Angela & Brian 🧡💙🧡

What more could we want?!
Dib, dib, dob, dob! Can Fido join the Scouts, as a watch-dog? He may be very fierce! And probably stricter rules than these - no merriment, ardour, or such-like, and not too much fun! lol.
C'mon now Fido, have a new year bone! Woof!
Thnaks UNCLE STEVE ~ Scouts do favour DOGS more than CATS and one Troop I was in w had a BLIND SCOUT with a GUIDE DOG ~ interestomg ! Fido would be very welcome as a Hon. Member because he has all the TRAITS I mentiom in the POEM ! He might be a bit of a DAMPNER round the camp fire ! Camp fire songs can contain innuendos ! Please keep ANDY at the top of your PRAYER LIST !
A Blessed 2020 for YOU & YOUR HIPPY HOUND
Love in the Spirit ~ ANGELA & BRIAN

I’m with you a hundred percent, great start to the new year with a brilliant poem.
GOOD AFTERNOON MAXINE - Thanks for your encouraging response. Pleased you liked our REVOLUTIONS - AMEN !
Blessings & Peace & Joy for 2020
Love Angela & Brian 🧡💙🧡💙
Your very welcome
I aspire to all ten of these - just hope I prove to be worthy. And thanks for the honour of chosing my work to illustrate your poem today.
BRIAN HERE ~ Thanks ! UNCLE MIKE ~ pleased you approve of our *borrowing* your latest ABSTRACT ! When we had completed the Poem we were looking for a suitable Poem and when I saw Yours ~ I immediatley felt it illustrated the CHAOS of 2020 which we hope & pray will all be resolved by 2021 ~ You might care to paint a less abbstact one to show we have made progress. We will send your fee to the Giude Dogs for the BLIND !
Blessings & Peace for 2020 to YOU & YOURS
Love ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡💙🧡💙🧡
