Monday Challenge

Hi Teamies! Hope everyone had a wonderful Father's Day weekend! And hope your shop had lots of views and sales too!
 
The Monday Makeover Challenge has been changed to the Monday Challenge to accommodate a wider range of team challenges. So, to introduce you to our "new and improved" blog feature, here is this week's Challenge:

We are going to call this the "Reach Out and Touch" Challenge. And yes, for you old timers like me, it is based on the Diana Ross song.....

...which I will now sing for you: (music, maestro)


From Petals of Grace


Reach out and touch

Somebody's hand
Make this world a better place
If you can
Reach out and touch
Somebody's hand
Make this world a better place
If you can

(Just try)
Take a little time out of your busy day
To give encouragement
To someone who's lost the way
(Just try)
Or would I be talking to a stone
If I asked you
To share a problem that's not your own
We can change things if we start giving
Why don't you

Reach out and touch
Somebody's hand
Make this world a better place
If you can
Reach out and touch
Somebody's hand
Make this world a better place
If you can

(Just try)
If you see an old friend on the street
And he's down
Remember his shoes could fit your feet
(Just try)
Try a little kindness you'll see
It's something that comes very naturally
We can change things if we start giving

Why don't you
Reach out and touch
Why don't you (Why don't you)
Reach out and touch somebody's hand

Reach out and touch
Somebody's hand
Make this world a better place
If you can
Reach out and touch
Somebody's hand
Make this world a better place
If you can

We have so many wonderful people on our team and this song, for me, embodies a large part of what our team is about. And we want all of our members to embrace this! So, our challenge this week is to contact at least two team members you are not familiar with and just say hi. Or, invite them to participate in the forums, see if there is anything they might need help with, or encourage them to take part in our team activities.

As always, this is not mandatory, but I know many of you will participate! And....

...you never know...

                 ...this just might be the day...

                                          ...you put a song in someone's heart...

                                                                           ...or a smile on their face!
