August means back-to-school time for the kiddos. Please take a few minutes to remind the young people in your life how important it is to be aware of their surroundings and how easy it can be to help make the new or “shy” person feel more comfortable; not only during these first few weeks of school, but anytime during the year. It’s amazing how the simple and easy act of eye contact, a smile, and a sincere hello can go a long way in making someone feel a bit more comfortable and confident. They may end up making a new “best friend”.
