In reply to Anonymous. I love that cookie cutter comment! No cookie cutters! Luckily I haven't had any naysayers. I know others who have had that experience & it's sad to me.

Fantastic. Eloquent. Inspiring. I’m uplifted and encouraged. I hear some of those same things when we tell people what we envision and are striving for. There have been a few “awesome”s and a couple of “how cool”s, but not many. It’s fascinating to me how many people are so quick to criticize a lifestyle that is not made from a cookie cutter, fitting neatly into society.

We don’t want our lives to be cookie-cutter…or resemble anything like that. We want our life to be filled with adventure and wonder, extraordinary, even if it’s only that way to us.

I couldn’t agree more with your article, and I commend you for having the courage to, despite the negativity, take your son and give him a real life education. Bravo!

In reply to Melissa Taylor. Thank you! That internal dialogue can be our best friend or worst enemy. How great you saw what it was for you.

Our internal dialog is sometimes echoed by those around us; once I became aware of the destructive nature of my internal dialog, I saw the lies and the truth.
I agree with you, our thinking has so much power. We can choose to live in truth and possibility or not.

I’m excited to read about your possibility as you journey around the world!

I suppose I don’t really need to post anything here – you know my thoughts on this topic oh-so-well!. But here goes…

You are right now. CAN’T is really an excuse. There are a million reasons NOT to do something, but all you really need is one good reason TO do it. Was it easy for us to give up our safe, secure, conventional lives in order to live life on the road?? Are you kidding??

Making the decision to travel as a family on our bicycles was – by far – the hardest decision we ever made. We agonized over it, we analyzed every facet of it. But in the end, we decided to go for it – because we CAN.

I sincerely hope that you manage to convince a few others other there that they, too, CAN live their dreams!
