Deciding to leave my full-time job was the hard part, actually leaving was a little easier.
Now, it has been over a year that I made that decision and although countless other decisions have been made since, I am no closer to pinning down what I am doing with my life, at least not in the societal sense. Meaning society thinks I should have a career plan and a family plan, but here I am all like, "hey, life is an adventure and I'm having fun exploring the paths I want even if other people are exploring different ones."
When quitting my job I silently told myself that I would surely have a plan to enact by the time I had traveled to France (and back) for the wedding celebration of my sister. Well, I embark on that journey to France at the end of the week and still have no idea what is next for my life. Maybe three weeks of travel, various language immersions and currencies, seeing old friends, making new friends, and simply being away from my safe place will be just the inspiration I need to make some decisions.
Until then, my only plan is to enjoy life, love those around me, and find beauty in seeing new places. In all honesty though, that is always my plan... It'll simply be time to expand that plan when I get back.C'est la vie...
