Loved how these airport stories were stressful and celebratory at the same time, Lighter. Thanks too for the people descriptions at the bar, loved the details to chew on. Good people profiles!

I liked The Four Agreements too. A little guru-ish (to which I'm allergic) but still good advice...

I've read four agreements long while back. My grandmother's sister who I never met sent me that book. It's the only thing she ever sent me so it stands out in my memory.

The guru stuff bounces off me, Hops.  My introversion works as an auto-reject shield, maybe?

Meh, I like to re read books, using different highlighters each time.  It's interesting to see what jumped out each time.

I'm guessing your grandmother's sister was aware of family dynamics in your life.  Sharing the book with you seems like a warmly extended hand of healing secrets..... I'm a huge fan of sharing information like that.
