Talking to Strangers

     A Girl Scout sold cookies outside a supermarket. The day was cold. Perhaps her fortitude generated sales from passersby.
    For as long as I can remember, Girl Scouts have knocked on doors to sell cookies. I’ve purchased their peanut butter ones. The girls accomplished more than raising money for their troops. They gained self confidence. It’s took courage for a child to approach a stranger.
    Now the Scouts are also selling online.This approach, I’ve read, keeps the girls relevant. Doing so probably boosts sales.
    I’d rather the girls conducted their sales exclusively in person. That way, they’d converse face to face with people they don’t know.
    Talking to strangers builds confidence.
