I am nearly half way to having what I need to leave where I am for somewhere else.

That is to say that I have almost half the money I need to leave for California and I think about it every day.  I can’t help but be excited about the trip I will be taking, the things I will see, the people I may meet…

It is not that I don’t like it where I am now…not entirely.  This place has many things to offer and many things I have here that I would not have anywhere else.  It just doesn’t feed my creativity or my mind.  I can’t help but think that it is stifling me, keeping me from being myself fully, not the me that I want anyway…it seems to bring out the worst of me.  At the very least it is more difficult here to meet the people who would encourage me to be myself, this is not to say that anyone is trying to do the opposite though.  This is a place to raise children and retire but not to live your whole life…I refuse.
