You Know Not What You Have Until it is Gone As I
abandon the once freezing cold chair that has
since been warmed by my presence, I can not fight
the smile that is on my face. Maybe Im just
selfish, but I love it when there isnt a crowd,

required to retake a driving test and have a

and a hard way. However, I do believe that the
hard way would be most fulfilling to the teacher
and it would definitely enhance the student. There
