Moving on to greater things…

So, those of you who know me personally know that I have been planning to make a big change in my life. That time is coming rather soon. It looks like I may be in New York City as a New Yorker in only a matter of weeks. I will have a job, school, and a place to crash.

Why I decided to make the move. I like the big city. Every time I go up there, I meet someone amazing and very interesting. In a city with so many people, I can see why. I like the lifestyle, the chaos, and the insanity of the city. It also will test me in ways I have yet to be tested. For years I have been looking for something to spark my potential. I think this might be the solution. There are so many inspiring people in the city that I think they can help motivate me to the levels I crave.

I know once I get up there I will experience changes that may annoy me. I am used to having a car to go places. I have consciously come into the know that I can not just drive anywhere, even to know I will have my car with me. I also know I will be walking an awful lot. That doesn’t bother me yet. I look at it from the angle of it gets me moving over just sitting on my butt like I currently do.

Another important thing that I will enjoy is the exposure to the arts outside my current Music and Movie choices. Those will increase over time, but being exposed to Broadway, Art, and literature will only help increase my intelligence. Reading a book on the subway is going to be done. I know it. When I see others doing it, I want to do it. Follower instead of a leader? Perhaps. In any case, I believe these little experiences will fill that gap in my life where I have felt unproductive and uninteresting.
