I’m laying in bed trying to go to sleep exhausted from another work week. All I can think about is leaving and the things I need to take care of before I go.
It’s not a long list but it seems that more gets added to it every day.
Not a day goes by that I’m not asked how excited are you, I bet you're getting nervous, are you all packed?
I’m not nervous one bit (yet) and I feel very comfortable saying that I may not get nervous at all. I have never felt the way that I feel right now.
So alive
I know deep down inside that this is soo right. I have no doubts in my mind, no fears. It feels good to have made such a huge goal for myself and to have worked so hard to achieve it.
A goal that is going to be life changing for sure.
Am I getting excited, of course, but more excited for all the changes and possibilities to come.
To be free to do whatever I want, to have no commitment. I’ve already been thinking past my Alaskan journey.
What will happen when it’s over?
Will I feel fulfilled and be ready to settle down and start my new life with the man I love,
or will we follow a dream we have together of moving out west,
or will I want to go back to Alaska next summer.
Who knows, only time will tell. But I so enjoy dreaming of all the possibilities.
“You’re so brave” they all tell me.
“I wish I would’ve gotten out when I was younger”.
“Do it now while you can”.
“I’m so proud of you”.
My group of cheerleaders… my family, my work family, my closest friends, strangers.
They all fuel my fire
I fuel my fire
