moving is never easy, but trying to move away from a place you've been for so long... i suppose it's a little like being able to go to your own funeral - you start to hear how much people like you and how much they appreciate you. and that was just letting the people at church know i was going.
this is hard. but i know if i don't make this move, i'm going to regret it for the rest of my life. i feel like i've been wondering 'what if' for so long, and now i'm finally getting the chance. i suppose i could look at it like i'm a failure, moving back home and all, but it's not like that. i'm getting a better job and returning to be close to family.
guess i'll have to start caring about how i look when i run to the store again...no telling if i might run into people from high school. ;) kidding. kinda.
and people thought i'd never move back. and i thought i'd never move back. now to find that balcony overlooking the ocean or the bay...and a nice sunset...with jazz music wafting out the windows into the cool night air... (more of this dream...)
Posted by kendra at November 30, 2003 10:30 PMWowzers! You're moving back to Cali! HOORAY!!!! I think this is a very wise decision (but of course, I'm biased...). Good for you for having the courage to make a decision like this. And I would never think of moving home as a "failure". The only failure lies in NOT taking action. (do I sound like a fortune cookie?)
Can't wait to see you,
