Honor Your INNER CHUBBY CHILD by Janice Taylor, Self-Help Artist (art that invokes happy wisdom)

Are Girl Scout Cookies ‘simply irresistible?’  Maybe.  They are not just chock-a-block with sugar, butter and flour.  They are infused with memories, meaning and The Girl Scout Promise and The Girl Scout Law.

The Girl Scout Promise

On my honor, I will try:
To serve God and my country,
To help people at all times,
And to live by the Girl Scout Law.

The Girl Scout Law

I will do my best to be
honest and fair,
friendly and helpful,
considerate and caring,
courageous and strong, and
responsible for what I say and do,
and to
respect myself and others,
respect authority,
use resources wisely,
make the world a better place, and
be a sister to every Girl Scout …

and … sell and eat Girl Scout Cookies forever more.
