SO I was listening to the radio the other day… and the dial stopped on this counrty station that I almost NEVER listen to. I’m not a huge country fan, but the lyrics just seem to fit my thoughts perfectly. Below is a bit of the song that I heard, and the part that made the most sense. –
“and its a long way from here, to the place where the home fires burn
well its two thousand miles and one left turn…
…welll I love you more than anything in the world,
Love your baby girl”
I’m moving to California in 3 months! AHHHHH!! In all honesty… I’m pretty darn scared. Ya know how everyone at some point dreams of moving to the place farthest away form their small town childhood home? Well I had those dreams too, sure who wouldn’t? I’ve decided that when push comes to shove, the adventure of moving so far away looses it’s glimmer and attraction to fear. The up side is it’s not like I’m just moving away without anywhere to go or anyhting like that, that’ll all be taken care of. So that aspect is fabulous. I’m also fairly used to being away from home, and have been for a long time- thank youuuu Camp Auxilium. 🙂 The catch is, I haven’t been on a plane since I was 9, and I’ve NEVER been this far from home, and this time, I’m moving OUT! As in, not going back, leaving the nest, getting out of the bubble that is Scranton, leaving my family for good. This is ccrrrraaazy! I can’t believe that the time is here and now. We’re jsut standing on the edge of the abyss that is life, waiting to dive in.
I hope I remember my parachute, because I dont’ plan to hit bottom any time soon- that’s all I can say.
