Perspective

Aunt Josie has been away on a three-week trip out of the country.  Trips that take one out of one's comfort zone and require observation, decision-making, and action are very valuable for one other important reason.  They almost inevitably offer the voyager a different perspective on life in general, and the life one is living in particular.

So, if you are going through a difficult time and have the resources, Aunt Josie says to "Jump out of your day-to-day and book a flight to somewhere else."  You will return with new energy and insights even if there were some negative aspects to your trip.
