"Life is either a great adventure or nothing."
-Helen Keller-
Christina and I had a conversation recently about my lack of an adventurer's spirit. I don't consider myself to be close-minded, and I'm also quite proud of the diversity of experiences I've had thus far in life. But I like routine and familiarity, and I'm a homebody if ever there was a homebody. Spontaneity is not usually equated with Bagel.
Sometimes, however, it pays to be the open-minded, spontaneous kind. Christina and Chris opened their hearts, minds, and family to new experiences, new countries, and, most importantly, new waiting lists, and look what came of it!
If you want a job at the Tattered Cover, I do know someone VERY well who has worked there for many years and may be able to get you in the door... just sayin.
ReplyDeleteI didn't find myself particularly open minded/outgoing until I began doing volunteer work abroad!
