Take the opportunity to get involved with an activity of interest this summer. Grow vegetables, read every book your favorite author ever wrote, start a business—whatever your heart desires, just do it! You’ll likely learn something about yourself and you might even develop some unique interests, discover new people and expand your world. That’s the point!
