I love a chocolate company that provides not only for my milk chocolate needs but also for my motivational ones.  Thanks to Dove,  I recently enjoyed these three little tasty treats and as a bonus I got three profound life messages.  “Be fearless, Do what feels right, and Get out there and make your dreams happen.”  I’m the kind of person who loves daily mantras that help keep me in a positive mindset, thankful for what I have, and encourage me to be strong.   These couldn’t have been more perfect for me.  They gave me that little boost I needed for the day … not to mention the chocolate was pretty tasty too.  I think three pieces is my limit, however.  I must admit, for a moment,  I was tempted to eat a few more to see if there were any more salient tips for me.  I guess chocolate and mantras have at least one thing in common, there is such a thing as too many.  Now go out and be fearless, do what feels right, and make your dreams happen.

I wish I were as eloquent as Mark Twain!!  When I think about the motivation behind The Life Bus, the spirit that we are trying to capture with our adventures and our writings, and the philosophy we try to live by every day, I wish I could have stated it as well as Mark Twain did.  HIs words capture the spirit of The Life Bus so wholly there is really nothing more that needs to be said.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain
