Inspired yet again by our young leadersin the midst of adjusting to on-line learning and covid19 precautions, the Gonzales Youth Council met today via Zoom (ma...ny using this web-conferencing tool for first time) to check-in with one another, determine how to move their action project forward. Don’t you think the inspiration the Yourh Commissioners chose to open their meeting is so on point: Unhappiness can be like a virus spreading from one person, to the next person, to the next one and so on. When someone is mean or rude to you, do not let their unhappiness infect your own life. If you are the unhappy one, please quarantine yourself so you do not infect others!" ~ Jennifer O'Neill #YouthAreLeadersTodayNotJustforOurFuture #GYC #LoveCareConnect the #GonzalesWay
