Lessons in discretion

My name is Mr. Smith, and I’ ve been a scoutmaster for more years than I care to admit to. I recently took early retirement from a pretty stressful job in the city and moved upstate to do all the stuff I’ d always figured it would be fun to do at some point in my life. The only downside of the move was the need to switch scout troops, but I found a pretty friendly group up here and I’ ve settled in quite well. One of the definite perks of being a scoutmaster is the ability to shape a young man’ s destiny by teaching him skills and opening his tender mind to new ideas and concepts. Every so often, I find myself developing quite a keen interest in a boy. It can be fun to toy with him a bit. even give him a look which makes him blush… I can’ t deny having a bit of a desire for the young men in my troop. As I spend more time around them, I feel myself becoming alive in ways I didn’ t expect.
