Lack of Pride or Shame

OK, I obviously have not spent much time "being here now"! But I had to write this evening, just came from the Cub Scout meeting I prepared for over the past week, less than half the den showed up, which was more than the one scout who helped us with Scouting for Food on last Saturday. Just a few observations: it seems there is no shame anymore...no shame in not fulfilling your commitments, no shame in letting others down without warning. Everyone is so "busy" that it OK to forget, put aside...oh my, it is tiring and very sad to me. I think there should be some shame. There should be pride in accomplishments and commitments and a sense of loss when you don't live up to them.
