3 Years Later -

This is going to be a short post but I feel so guilty for not writing in so long.  I promised myself I would keep up with my blogs and of course I haven't.  Here is the best part.  I'm still not going to have time because I am finally MOVING.

If you have read my "posts from the past" you will find out that I moved from Virginia to California and then ended up in Tulsa.  Well I moved away for two reasons.  First reason is I have always wanted to leave home and explore the world.  I just knew there was more to life than where I grew up and the state I lived in.  I wanted the experience of living in other places.  Second reason is I had someone ask me to marry them and wanted me to move out to California with him (my dream).  I don't think I ever really loved him (in love with him) but more the idea that he could show me a new world.  That great new world turned into a disaster.

I moved away from home in February 2008 and I have been single living on my own since February 2010.  Its time to go back home.  I have learned more about life, people, and relationships than I could have ever learned if I would have stayed at home those three years.  Although the journey was hard at times, I don't regret one minute of it because it has made me the person that I am today. 

I hope to update periodically on my move and how things are going once I get back home.  I plan to leave the last week in February so I have a lot of work to do.  Being a full-time procrastinator makes things even worse but I should get through it with the help of God and my wonderful family and friends. 

Peace and Hearts

  1. Nice post! Thank you for sharing this insight into some of your journey. I too took time to get away from it all. Sometimes that helps us gain perspective on things and gets us to wear we want to be. Please write more! :)

  2. Thank you for the comment! I think I finally realize why I don't keep up with my blog writing. I tend to overwrite! I need to save that for my memoir and keep my blog posts short!

    You inspire me and keep me motivated. Thanks!
