Here we go.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03614115043283002940noreply@blogger.comBlogger2125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116328593084927393.post-38192872012189010372013-05-02T08:06:00.002-07:002013-05-02T08:06:44.833-07:00PerspectiveFor someone who used to be petrified of change, I could not be more calm about my upcoming uprooting. Seattle has been in the back of my mind for months, but now it is roaring towards me like a freight train. This freight train isn't going to hit me, though; it's going to scoop me up and show me something new. <br />
<br />
The most important life lesson I have learned thus far is to avoid getting stuck in my own perspective. I get lazy sometimes, but what I really want is to keep soaking up information and stories that make me see the myself and my surroundings in a different light. Challenging yourself is made possible by constantly developing your perspective. This happened by default when I was in school, but now it is necessary to take the initiative.<br />
<br />
So, here I go. <br />
Across the country. <br />
<em>Way</em> across the country. <br />

Roots. Who needs them? <br />
<br />
Well... me. But not right now.<br />
