Today is the first day of August. On the last day of this month, I will be heading down the island, making stops in Duncan to see my friend Tracy and then a night with my Mom in Victoria and then on September 1st I catch the Victoria Clipper to Seattle. Yesterday as I was driving to work, I thought to myself. What am I doing? Wouldn't it be easier, cheaper etc. to just stay put and not go? What if I don't like it? What if I forget all my Spanish? What if I am uncomfortable?
Why am I doing this? I temporarily forgot. One reason I want to leave is to think about what to do next? I have been at the same job for almost 7 years - the longest I have ever stayed put. The first several years were absolutely great but the last year has been tough. What if I go all that way and I still don't know what to do next?
Tomorrow I get my pack fitted and shown the way... that way. Then I will spend this month getting acquainted with my new home much like a turtle becomes acquainted with his new shell.
I am sure it is quite normal to have second thoughts and doubt. Right?
