Our Learning: We had a discussion today about the importance of being a good friend to all people, even if you are not best friends. A good practice is to ask yourself , "Is it necessary? Is it kind?" when we interact with others. When we make a mistake, reflect on how you could have done things differently. Own your mistake and apologize to the person you may have harmed. Moving forward, with each small step, how can you become your best self?
