Taking the leap

The decision to leave behind the security of a job, a comfortable lifestyle and proximity to so many good friends was one that took some serious consideration, but ultimately became a decision of the heart. Feeling a little empty on the soul, I want to feed that part of me and see what happens. The future promises no certainty, whether in a secure job or not. Knowing that anything could happen to me at any minute, I don't think that I can bear the regret of spending much more time at a desk as the romanticism of exploring is calling me. I was burning out mentally and neglecting myself physically, but still felt grounded spritually and comfortable with who I am, and I know that alone will help the transition from a very structured lifestyle, to one that is much less so.
