    I recently took a risk traveling to Fortaleza, Brazil to spend time with my son. It was the first time that I traveled outside of the USA. The trip was absolutely the greatest one of my life. John you hit the nail on the head when you made mention of “comfort zone” because that’s exactly what my son said to me. After, I left there last Thursday. He thanked me for leaving my comfort zone here in the states. In order to spend some time with him in Brazil. Having taken this trip, I am living proof that taking risk can indeed make one happier. Boa noite!
