Service before self

For no apparent reason, I can recall the lyrics to this Girl Scout Song from when my sister was a Brownie in, what, 1977?

On my honor, I will try.
There's a duty to be done and I say aye.
There's a reason to be here for a reason above.
My honor is to try and my duty is to love.
People don't need to know my name.
If I've done any harm, then I'm to blame.
If I've helped someone, then I've helped me.
And that's the way that it should be.

Now that Greta's social circle revolves quite a bit around her troop, I see her living those lyrics every day. Here are a couple phone snaps from last weekend when she helped prepare food for the hungry.
