Cultural values are unique.I think one of the things that I learned again was that cultural values are specific. We traveled to Japan and the values were different and I was surprised by how much it influenced everything. The way people behaved on the subway or the ways people interacted were just different. I think sometimes when I stay in a place I am familiar with I assume the cultural values here are the same universally and I am always caught off guard and remember that my experience is not the experience of everyone. A haircut can make a big difference.I typically am not someone who gets consistent haircuts. I get them once every few years. I basically always have moved by the time it it time for a new haircut. I find this to be frustrating and I am always hesitant when going to a new hairdresser, usually I am conservative with my haircuts in case it is tragic. In general, I just wait it out. I actually had my first good haircut in about 4 years and it made such a difference. I felt like a new person. I am surprised at how much it made me feel more like me. Trust your body.One of the things I am learning is to trust my body. I am learning to go slower and do what I need to do, to take time as I need it. I am also able to trust that my body knows what it is doing and I can just relax and listen and I will be okay.

I have also wanted to go out of the country to learn to embrace other cultures. I think it is very important.
