As this ever happened to you, arriving at a brand new school and a brand new neighborhood on the first day, you don't know a single person. You want to get acquainted, but you don't quite know how to go about it. You decide to wait a while and see what happens.
Uh-oh. Ah, you knew me, aren't you? Remember the last school? Maybe these three are here to pick a fight. You have to be careful. What's it serious? That was the wrong thing to say. You thought they were troublemakers, and because of the way you answered, you answered, they now think you are a troublemaker. Have you ever had an
experience like this and wish that you could have a second chance a chance to do things right? If you could have a second chance, let's see what might have happened. This time you don't expect the worst. Hi, you're new here aren't you?
That's right. My name is Ms. Martin. My name is Jack Boyer. This is Bob Rhettles and It was such a simple thing when you had a second chance to say and do the right thing.
The only couple is you can't relive the moments in which you make mistakes. It's important to learn what to do and say the first time. Of course, you have to be aware of what you might be doing wrong before you can improve.
Perhaps you are like this boy, a really nice person who just doesn't know how to return a greeting. So you respond with a cold nod of the head, or at most a mumbled reply. The person who receives such a greeting gets the idea that you're at ground.
