She says, “ I’ m not trying to escape society as so many do who come to the Bush. I’ m choosing a lifestyle! I want a life with adventure and purpose.” Life on the homestead was certainly different from the one Pam had known; a woodpile instead of a thermostat, no running water or indoor plumbing, no electricity, and no phone. And, she "chose" this! Go figure. Pam touches something in each of us that says life can be more than ordinary. We do indeed have a choice, and we either exercise or surrender that choice each day. Pam’ s choices changed her life dramatically and set an example for the rest of us. Between these pages you will find a hearty and entertaining example of the power of choice. |
