was fun!
Learnt about the 3 Rs
Relationship, Responsibility and Resilience
Relationships means: we are created to be connected to one another
i find that the Flying Geese are really cool
Fact: As each goose flaps its wings it creates an “uplift” for the birds that follow. By flying in a V-formation, the whole flock adds 72% greater flying range than if each bird flew alone.
Lesson: People who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they are going quicker and easier because they are traveling on the thrust of another.
Fact: When a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of flying alone. It quickly moves back into formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the bird immediately in front of it.
Lesson: If we have as much sense as a goose we stay in formation with those headed where we want to go. We are willing to accept their help and give out help to others.
Fact:When the lead goose tires, it rotates back into the formation and another goose flies to the point position.
Lesson: It pays to take turns going the hard tasks and sharing leadership. As with geese, people are interdependent on each other’s skills, capabilities, and unique arrangements of gifts, talents, and resources.
Fact: The geese flying formation honk to encourage those up front to keep up their speed.
Lesson: We need to make sure our honking is encouraging. In groups where there is encouragement, the production is greater. The power of encouragement (to stand by one’s heart or core values and encourage the heart and core of others) is the quality of honking we seek.
Fact: When a goose gets sick, wounded, or shot down, two geese drop out of formation and follow it down to help and protect it. They stay with it until it dies or is able to fly again. Then, they launch out with another formation or catch up with the flock.
Lesson: If we had as much sense as geese, we will stand by each other in difficult times as well as when we are strong.

tt’s what i learnt exactly from the camp, so coincidental that i found this in the net. hehe
Stages of Relationship-Building:
1) Forming Stage ( “honeymoon”)
2)Storming Stage (”disagreement”)
3) Norming Stage (”consensus” - willing to talk about the problem
4) Performing Stage (”peak performance”) - greater understanding; maturity
Conflicts are helpful cause they are a sign of growth. They show us that our relationship is progressing and not superficial.
Conflicts are meant to be resolved.
Conflicts may cause hurt and pain but when we learn to resolve them, they help us build character, wisdom, trust, and strengthen the relationship
A rule to conflict resolution is: “AGREE TO DISAGREE”
actually i’m quite lazy to continue with the other 2 Rs.
HEHE SO BYE d:
