Something to think about

When I was blog-hopping today, I stopped at BZ's blog and it got me thinking ....

If money was no object, would you move out of your life you have right now and start fresh or resume an old life?

I would move and start fresh. I'd go to Canada or Alaska and I'd just dig in the scenery and start as someone completely new. I'd screw my first name (I hate it anyway) and go by my middle - I'd even legally change my last name. Now I know it sounds like I'm running, but when you grow up in a small community and you've established yourself in it's larger community you are your past and I'd screw it all for a fresh start.

You?

Interesting question; would I like to start over again if money wasn’t an issue. In some respects I would like to start over again but I do not think I would like to move permanently away from St. Louis. I would like to live other places for short periods of time but would like to retain a permanent home in St. Louis.

My dream would be to publish my book and then write the screenplay and accept a lucrative movie deal. Then I could write a series of books about these characters and make on screen appearances like Quentin Tarantino. Then during my time between books I would like to travel to other places and stay a couple of months and then move on to the next place. Enough about me.

It does sound to me like you are running away. It sounds to me like you feel unappreciated where you are. Everybody needs to feel appreciated and when we don’t we get overwhelmed. Compounding the problem is that your love life has stalled and it always sucks to live with your parents.

To help motivate you and possibly calm you down a bit, I found this recently on a friend’s blog and though it might help you: (also get your massage soon!!)

“Know how beautiful you are body and soul; never doubt that. You have everything a man could want in a woman. You just haven't found the right man; but you will."

Hope that helps and good luck finding what you are looking for.

Sunday evening I have booked my massage appointment and I'm escaping to the haven of MI for the weekend to be a sexpot ski bunny (with immediate family in tote).

I like that quote a lot - perhaps it will give me piece of mind as I recharge my week...

Oh one more thing Darth - I think YOU SHOULD WRITE. You're blog is great - Echoes through an Eternity is just a bit of how great your skills are. That's a dream you should not ditch.

Love MG

I changed my last name. But, I wasn't running, really. I just took my mother's maiden name, instead (because she and her family are the ones that put in the work to raise and nurture me).
