Leaving it all behind and moving to a new life


Some people want to run away from their current lives because it is a disaster and they believe that staying there will not do them any good. Some just do it looking for ‘greener’ pastures. There is nothing explicitly wrong about the current life, but they believe that it would be better somewhere else.
I think I’m the second type. I was initially elated when things were  finally settling down making my ‘depature’ possible. I though abt all the experiences I would have, and all the things I would see. I dreamt about all the new carrier prospects I would have.

But it’s a week remaining for my imminent movement, and  I’m in an emotional blackout situation. If a person hates his current life, at this point he should be feeling very excited and would be having his eyes and ears open for the new life, but for a person who has a nearly perfect life (except for some glitches in the past which I try to forget) moving into a completely new world doesn’t seem too much appealing right now.

I would miss my great friends, and I know that I have a good lot of them. I will miss my parents, fighting with them and laughing with them. I will miss my spacious home and would be moving into a small apartment which would be shared by ‘god-knows-who’ type of people.  And I would have to build my image, who I am bit by bit all over again in an alien environment.

All I could wish for is that the transition would be smooth.
