Making Connections
Our speaker this week was Kenneth Black, Mr. Black’s father. He spoke to us about connecting and how we can make lasting connections. I personally very much enjoyed his stories about his connections, and thought that really it just taught me that it really is about connections. Connections will get you so far. I think that a lot of people just go through life trying to just do the minimum, and it was really interesting to get some ideas as to how I can connect with others. It’s so important for us to make connections to classmates, teachers, and friends. Communication is how the world goes around. Ever since he spoke less than a week ago, I’ve noticed opportunities every day to go out of my way to communicate with people and to get to know others.
