Things Hondurans do right
Tortillas. Making excuses. Avoidance. Family. Treating everyone as family. Beans. Sharing. Spending the entire day doing not much and making it seem like work. Prayer. Support. Understanding. Parties. Smoothies. Perseverance. Taking their time. Lemonade. Civic acts. Parades. Pretending to forget things. Brushing someone off. Fairs. Coffee breaks. Giving rides. Pointing with their lips. Birthdays. Christian music. Frozen treats. Putting things off. Canceling at the last minute. Snacks. Dancing. Fundraisers. Chip-eating. Windy roads. Mismatching clothes. Smiling. Acceptance. Cleaning. Dealing with the rain. Not having shame in breastfeeding babies. Carrying things on their heads. Waiting. Driving manual vehicles. Bargaining. Markets. Patience. Introductions. Adding sugar to things. Cooking all day long. Men being macho. Friendliness.
