Always great to see someone post a great thought for their first comment on the blog! Each moment is really where it is all at, Pam, and by continually realizing that, we create more great moments in the future. Ever since I wrote this post, I see school buses everywhere, and I always smile and give thanks!! :) Pam,

The view is indeed amazing from "this side of the glass", isn't it. We too choose freedom. Jennifer and I both walked away from six figure corporate jobs (a.k.a. well paid slave labor) to be free. And every day we follow our passion and our inspiration... a true blessing far too few people have ever experienced. Have an awesome day! Dan & Jennifer Hey Aaron,

You're already on the right track by being grateful for things like being able to drive yourself! As an LOA student, you know that gratitude for what we have opens the doors to get more things to be grateful for. As far as being of service to other people who are still on the bus, it's not the actual being or not being on the bus that matters, but whether or not you <b>want</b> to be on the bus that counts. It is in doing what we want that we experience Freedom, which is why this whole idea has made me so happy in the realization of my present state of affairs. I am where I am because I <em>chose</em> to be here, and that fills me with joy. You'll get off the bus if and when you choose to, Lyman, but in the meantime, keep on showing gratitude for being able to drive, and don't forget: <b>No Standing Forward of the White Line!</b> :) Lyman,
