Over the years I have always been pretty true to myself and placed full faith in my decision making. Seven years ago I went against the opinion of my loving but overly pragmatic parents and moved to California without a job or transportation. I had little trouble finding either and although my reasons for the move didn’t pan out I do enjoy the life I’ve had here. I miss my friends in Atlanta and no doubt I’ll be back there within 2-3 years.
Last year I placed the opinions of others ahead of my own when it came to relationships. I went against my gut intuition in favor of an objective opinion. That turned out to be some monumentally bad (although well intentioned) advice. This year I will get back to basics and stay true to myself. I think I know what’s best for me. Whether I end up where I hope will remain a mystery but life isn’t about the destination…but the road you take to get there.
