Should I stay or should I go?
I used to travel and be very spontaneous, making decisions that changed my life by inviting a little chaos in, usually deciding I wanted to go somewhere or try something, so working, saving, packing up and getting on a plane and having loads of fun… travelled, moved house about, erm well, over 30 times in my life and met some amazing people. So now I’ve been in the same place for 7 years. I’ve been overseas during that time but more like a tourist and not the nomadic chick I used to be. I ended up here after a trip overseas, meeting someone etc etc etc.. anyway not been with them for a good 5 years and not really met anyone since then that was serious either. I did however get introduced to surfing through people I met here and now I’m thinking about seriously dropping out, for a different quality of life. I’m not materealistic and I don’t think I fall into a category of feeling the need to have a new car to show what kind of person I am if you know what I am. Those things, the status symbols just aren’t and never really have been important to me. I don’t really have anywhere particular in mind to go to although, like most I guess (?)I love the sun and I think that might be my only preference! I’m blowing hot and cold about staying close to my family which is not helping me in making a decision. I do know I don’t want to be here but don’t know what to do and feel really indecisive and frustrated with myself. This stuff used to come easy, these days… so that’s why I’m posting. Do I stay put in my comfy life here and travel to the surf at the weekends with my two trusted surf buddies who I love dearly, or, pack it all up, sell half or more of it, start a new life and just see what happens? I don’t own property and have no aspirations to do so although it is financially viable to some degree. I don’t mind what I do for a living either so long as I’m working with good people who want to work and enjoy what they’re doing. This sounds so cheesy… Anyway, any thoughts on how to weed out what I really want for myself would be greatly received. Thanks for reading, and aloha.
