Cycle of Considerations Lesson

Atttitude - Stop our opponent from hurting us. Unawareness is our greatest enemy.

Environment ----- No awareness - the rest of the cycle doesn't matter much.

Attitude - She says later that she didn't know how to swim; but she still hangs onto her

cell phone.

Ireally think Search and Rescue is going to be a great job field. I think I will get back into it and make a career of it.

It's interesting in the few videos and other things we have collected that material position is important over life. "She still had her mobile phone in her hand and initially she apologized and said sorry."

It's not Facebook that is the problem. It's the whole feeling of having to be continually connected that people have. How important was that phone. It's a culture of having the possession be more important than your life. That's messed up.
