What Doesn't Kill You Only Makes You Stronger


20 Things I Have Learned in Venezuela:

1) Life is too short to be anything but happy
2) Things don't always go as according to plan... that's what makes it fun!
3) Simplicity is always better
4) Learn from the choices you make, regret the risks you don't take
5) Treat others the way you wish to be treated
6) The US is obsessed with physical appearance... It truly is what's on the inside that really matters
7) Happiness is a decision: you get to decide how happy you want to be!
8) Mixed people are the prettiest... that's proof that culture and diversity are God's gift, embrace it. -Mrs. Weatherhead
9) Every once in awhile you just need to get away... where better than amidst the peace of nature
10) Be who you are and say what you feel- those who mind don't matter, those who matter don't mind
11) Everything sounds better in Spanish :)
12) Child rearing is more or less the same in various cultures
13) Knowledge and experience are the two thing that will never leave you... you can lose your phone or your camera, but everything you learn from experience is everything you have and you can access it at any given time. -Alexi Garcia
14) The only thing that stands between a person and their dreams is fear... and sometimes lack of money...
15) Water is the only thing you can't overdose on
16) We were all put on this earth to talk; interact... so do it! That's how you learn!
17) Look for the good in others, judging is only a waste of time
18) Being away helps you discover who you really need in your life
19) Open your heart and mind, thats how we grow
20) We will never visit every spot on this precious earth, but we can sure as hell try. Venezuela is a just single country with yet SO much to offer.
