32. "I'm moving to LA for a few months on Saturday" In response to In response to 0
and I am mostly excited about it but there is this part of me that is afraid that I am going to want to stay there longer (i.e actually move) and my entire family is on the east coast.
my mother had a major health scare a few days ago. her blood pressure was so high that her doctor thought she was going to have a stroke. put her on bedrest (which of course lasted only a half a day....smh) and kept her out of work for two weeks. she decided to retire now and put everything in motion today. the reality that my parents are getting older is setting in and i don't want to be across the country if something happens. i watched that video from ebro and i know i could get that call too.
but at the same time....i want to live my life for me which at the moment makes me feel selfish. ionno. i guess i will cross that bridge in a couple of months. sometimes i wish i didn't always have the itch to move somewhere new and do something new and could just live in one place for years like my fam has :/
the key to happiness is not being rich; it's doing something arduous and creating something of value and then being able to reflect on the fruits of your labor
