Daisy Petals & Their Meanings

I WILL DO MY BEST TO BE (Daisy Blue - The Promise Center) 
 
HONEST AND FAIR (Light Blue Petal) - I will tell the truth, even if it might get my friends or me in trouble. I will stick up for what is right, not for who is popular. I will do my kaper chart chores, because not one should have to do my share. 
 
FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL (Yellow Petal) - I will do my kapers without having to be told twice. I will offer to help someone, because I appreciated getting help when I need help. I will pay attention to someone's' problem, because I may have an idea that can help. 
 
CONSIDERATE AND CARING (Light Green Petal) - I will not scream at, hit, or treat people badly. I will not leave someone out, because I feel sad when I'm left behind. I will not say things to hurt someone's feelings, just because my "friends" think it's fun. 
 
COURAGEOUS AND STRONG (Red Petal) - I will have the courage to stick to the rules even when it might not seem cool. I will be a friend, even when my friend is not popular. I will try new things, even if I'm afraid, because I know my troop will help me. 
 
RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT I SAY AND DO (Orange Petal) - I will talk out the problems I have with someone. I will not talk bad about them. If I hurt someone by my actions or words, I will do my best to fix it. I will stay with the troop and always have a buddy without being told. I will accept my punishments without complaining, if I do something I know is wrong. 
 
RESPECT OTHERS AND MYSELF (Purple Petal) - I will not call names. I will treat other people the way I want to be treated. I will treat other people's stuff the way I want them to treat my stuff. I will listen to other's opinions, and not interrupt. I will not do something I am uncomfortable with, just because a friend wants me to. 
 
RESPECT AUTHORITY (Magenta Petal) - I will listen to the adults; they are here to help me. I will follow directions and rules; they were made to keep me safe. I will follow the quiet sign; otherwise I might miss something important. 
 
USE RESOURCES WISELY (Green Petal) - I will try not to waste water when brushing my teeth and showering. I will recycle as often as I can, to help save the earth and replace what I have taken. I will share with others, not only in my troop, but also with all people. 
 
MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE (Rose Petal) - I will pick up trash when I see it. I will not harm the environment - the air, land, water, and animals. I will not pick on someone for being different. Being different is what makes us special! 
 
BE A SISTER TO EVERY GIRL SCOUT (Violet Petal) - I will have a great time with my friends. I will try to make every day a great memory for tomorrow.
