Miscellaneous Musing by Judy @ 6:49 PM

Today #1 Son passed his driving test. He passed both the written and the actual driving tests with 100%. Yeah… I’m pretty proud.

From DMV he drove me to lunch, and from there up to PCC for an appointment with an advisor. My part in the whole school thing was to ask, at the very end of the appointment, “How much?” He handled everything else himself, asked all the right questions and made what I think are some good decisions about his future direction while still keeping his options open. He’s all registered for school in the fall. Yeah… I’m pretty proud.

After he was finished at PCC, he dropped me off at “my house,” and then headed off by himself in “his car” to go first to “his house” and then drive himself to work for the very first time ever. He called later to let me know that he made it with no problem. OK… I’m pretty proud.

After 7 years, there’s no longer a blue car parked in front of my house. It will be back. In the fall.

I’m…. proud. (she says with lump in throat and suspiciously damp eyes)

    • The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error.
