then focused upon something her mother
had advised: Look for the good, and
it will certainly be there. It will always outweigh
the tragedies.
After
three years had passed, Mary embarked upon
a national quest to discover that goodness. While
traveling in her mother’s blue Outback, she
searched for “simple acts of kindness.”
Calling
this journey “More Good,” Mary found plenty
of it. She entered as a stranger, but
left as
a friend in many a home along the way.
Hosts would
tell her their inspiring stories, and Mary would
document them for an upcoming book.
To
date, Mary's clocked 38,000 miles and has only seven
more states to visit. She’s stayed in homes on
all sides of the political divide. It
hasn’t mattered. When
you come right down to it, “there is really only one
underlying common factor,” and that is goodness.
