Dear Daughter

I do believe that today is another big test day – good luck!!! To stay positive remember Watsonville!!!

Lesson there is that sometimes life can get you down, bad things and rude people just happen – even if you don’t deserve it! But life is great because often a few simple acts of human kindness can alter all that. A single positive experience in an otherwise bad day can set you on a happier path. Thanks to all the folks out there that understand this and make the extra effort to improve other people’s days. Among these people are employees at the Watsonville DMV plus the many professors/teachers, doctors, nurses, police, etc that as individuals make the extra effort to be kind to people. For anyone reading this, remember that you too have the power to alter other people’s moods. So, be nice in your everyday dealings, not a pushover, but nice. I like Dave Barry’s test for whether someone is a nice person, “If someone is nice to you but rude to the waiter, they are not a nice person.“

P.S. –  we live nowhere near Watsonville, but it was worth the drive! Shame on you San Mateo DMV! You know what I’m talking about!
