Could be New York maybe Hollywood and Vine...

I’m finally starting to come to grips with my trip to California and search for future city, future home. I think I’ve been going about it all-wrong, and here is why. Each city that I’ve considered, I love. I went to LA thinking maybe I would hate it and then I’d be able to cross it off of my list….no such luck. I still love NYC, London, Nashville… If I Love each city, does that then mean that I will be happy anywhere? Or rather, I can find a way to be happy anywhere? I think so. My new comfort will come from the saying, ‘let go and let God’, because when it comes right down to it, I pray that I will end up where he wants me. All of the research in the world won’t change that. I do not plan to sit idly by and wait to see what happens to me, but I just may take a backseat and see where the driver is heading before I jump to any conclusions. Maybe God is keeping this a mystery from me because something bigger is coming, something that will change my course into an unforeseeable future. Right now I should just trust that I will end up in a place that is right. And I can take comfort in the fact that if the first place isn’t right, I can move. People move all of the time, I move all of the time. In fact, I’m happiest when I’m moving, constantly exploring something new. Right now, I’m moving to Washington DC, and adventure in its own! I’ve been so wrapped up in trying to figure out where I want to be in the future that I’ve forgotten that I get to be there now. This is part of my plan, to take a step back from the planning and into the moment. I’m going to carpe diem the hell out of my time in DC…and also check out a bit of New York while I’m there….oh boy.
