Reality and Dream Misalignment
Lately I have been a little bummered out. I typically am an up-beat and optimistic person, yet lately have been getting down each day. Over the past couple weeks I have tried to pin-point what it is exactly that is bothering me. It most likely is a handful of variables, but I believe the main portion is from the current misalignment between where I want to be in life and where I currently am.
I have lived in Salt Lake City 6 years as of this August. I love Salt Lake and I consider it my home … yet I am ready to move on. I am ready to move geographically, start a new adventure, try a new career, go back to school, meet new friends, learn a new language….. something…. something other than what I am doing here.
It isn’t that I am not happy here; it is just the point that there is more to life than what is entailed within one city / state / country. The completely frustrating aspect is I yearn for something new, but for some odd reason I can’t quite seem to get all the “ducks in a row” to make things happen. And I think I realized that maybe there is a reason for me to be waiting. I don’t know what the future entails but I do believe that things happen for a reason. Perhaps I need to consider more options. Perhaps I need to stick around because a new leaf will turn in Utah. Perhaps I have yet to make a contact that is necessary to open a door. I don’t know. I guess I will keep on brainstorming and hope that soon a new opportunity will come my way.
