I remember I was looking at this postcard on post secret one time that said this:
"I thought that moving to a new city where nobody knew me would be a good thing... but I'm still miserable."
When i read it i wondered... because one thing I often think of is just moving away.
I have always wanted to live in a big city where one would just disappear into the crowd, where nobody would find me. It would be great to move all of my stuff into a new apartment and just admire the feeling and the sight of being alone for just a while. I think that the first few days would be terrifying but after meeting a few good folks, it just might be fantastic. I think it would be exciting to discover a new city and the different things that only a local would know about that city. The good restaurants, the cities hot spots, the cool coffee shops and the stores that belong only to that specific city. To find a new thinking/prayer spot where I can overlook the city and not feel overwhelmed but truly be at peace. To look at this city and finally feel at home as I call those that I care about and let them know that I’m okay… and that I will be.
Maybe one day…

I went from Virginia to Houston and I loved it! I'd go back if I could.

I think about moving away,too. Sometimes I just get so tired of life and drama that I think I would be better off somewhere else ... but I don't know if it would be better or not because anywhere I go I will still be me.
it's always tempting. i think one just has to find people to be happy with and a career their happy with and then they'll be happy anywhere :)
