Things I learned from Travelling with cousin Kathleen

Having an open heart attracts the most interesting people
Everyone has a story, listen to it, it could be the best part of your day
Speak kindly, it doesn’t take any more effort but it works wonders
Try some new things… maybe not oysters, but some new things
Sing
Hug
Laugh
Look for moments of grace, they are all around you but they only make a difference if you take note of them
Everyone just wants to be accepted and/or appreciated
Don’t judge a book by its cover, but if its a very heavy book, you don’t have to keep it…. LOL
Everyone needs a little flashlight
Be prepared, and carry your own stuff
Going outside your comfort zone gains you a bigger comfort zone
Say thank you
Keep regular
Take off your shoes
Something good is going to happen, just wait for it
