Thank you for sharing this. This was perfect timing. I’ve been sitting here on a hot summer day working at my well-paying, yet miserable job thinking about what I can do to get out of here and make enough money to survive and be where I love—the mountains. I don’t know what that route is yet, but it all starts with a little positivity and an open mind. I needed to watch this today.
