Summary

According to the Greek philosopher, Epictetus, “It’s not what happens to you, but how you react that matters.” Rose Padilla and Chad Horton were looking to their future and thought they had their retirement plans all figured out, until they weren’t. When things sort of fell apart for them, instead of becoming bitter and resentful they took stock and decided there was another adventure they wanted to chase down, one that involved a motorcycle.
