Lots of Thinking

Over the past week I've been doing lots of thinking. I've been thinking a lot about the future, my current job, what I want to be doing and where I'd like to go. I've come to the conclusion that my heartstrings are telling me to give something else a try. I'm weighing my options and hopefully will have the answers soon. I know I was so crazy excited about being back in WI just a few short months ago, but clearly I want something else. I'm not satisfied being here. I have nothing here to keep me tied down. I have no commitments. I'm not ready to settle for anything yet. I'm still young and still interested in a variety of things.

"It's never too late to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again." ~Curious Case of Benjamin Button

I keep coming back to this quote over and over. I understand now more than ever this is the time for me to do whatever I want. If I'm not happy with what I'm doing and where I am at, I can always try something else. About a year ago I would have told you that I am not happy with my life and I would have been confused and lost and not know where to go. Today I can tell you, things don't get to me like they used to. I am much happier now then I was then. But I've learned to accept things and grow up. I also have a loving God, who I am sad to say, throw to the curb all of the time, but yet he keeps surprising me with blessing after blessing. I see all these people accomplishing so much and going places I never thought of going, that I realize it is time for me to experience life in a very different way. I'm sick of living this typical American life. I want to see things from someone else's eyes. I want to meet hippies, adventurers, bikers, atheletes, etc. I want to see things that change my life and appreciate the life I've been given. I want to give everything a try, because I only get this one life to live and enjoy and gosh darnit I will! I hope that I get amazing opportunities to go to other countries and see how people live. I want to change a few lives and meet lots of people the world over! I'm ready for a change of pace! More than ever I feel that this change is needed and 100% right! I will keep you posted!

Live your life! Change it, if it is not what you thought it'd be! Live. Love. Be Happy!

Peace&Love
