Unit 3 Crime of the Century and Ratings

The Crime of the Century activity was relaxing this morning, but I still cannot figure out why it is called the name that it is given :)

My rating for the physical self is at a 6 as I am still recovering from a knee injury. However, it has been getting progressively better, which will allow for longer work periods to be endured.

The psychological and spiritual selves are at an 8 today as I was handed a lesson and a half on how to fish walleyes effectively by someone who I respect. Seeing him in his elder years have the enthusiasm and passion that he had every time we fished together today made it worth it to have a humility lesson dealt. I only hope that my spirit strives as strong as his does when I am his age.

  1. I was also wondering why they named it Crime of the Century! I was waiting for some kind of escalated visualization exercise. Maybe the crime is that they are stealing us away for relaxation time.

    Hope the knee feels better soon!

    Having a mentor is an awesome part of life. Someone to look up to happens often when we are young, but I think as we get older, our egos come into play. It is great to see that you value the knowledge an elder can share with you. It is important to you, but also think about what it means to him to have someone to pass on the knowledge and truly SHARE life with.

  2. Thank you for this post. I was moved by the story of the wisdom man fishing.
