A New Adventure

I'm ready for the next adventure in my life. It's time. If the universe, god, Buddha, or any other "force" truly exists..........it is pushing me in a whole new direction in my life. Every day for the last month something has happened that has shown me I am making the right move. It just feels right. 
Seeing the empty boxes in our living room makes me thrilled and excited. I want them filled. I want to pull everything off of the walls, dump everything from our drawers and go. I want to see empty walls and hear my voice echo in the cleared rooms. 
We are moving. We are moving to a very small town. I'm leaving what I have known for 10 years. I am leaving a career I have been good at, loved and become successful at. I'm leaving a nice salary. I am entering the world of the unknown.
Maybe people think I'm crazy. Maybe some think I don't know what I'm doing. Why would I walk away from my 401K, health insurance, bonuses and my title? Why would I leave this big / beautiful home and the suburbs for a small house out in the country? 
It's simple, really. I choose happiness and freedom. I choose the life I want with my Wendy Sue. I choose quiet mornings and simple evenings. I want my stress to leave me. I want my world to slow down. Being a slave to the corporate world no longer fulfills me. 
My whole world has changed because of my Wendy Sue. From our first kiss, my life has been one adventure after the next. She has shown me the way.........
