And that when we're ready to look at the long-term, we will. ;-) Sometimes I think that short-term point of views are a form of self-preservation, you know?

We search for it when our days are full and we have an arm long list of things to do. And here you are, right in the middle of it. Scarey no doubt... but then, I think it's safe to say, had you been scared of the unknown, you would still be working a crappy job that made you miserable. You are moving forward and the future is there for you to take the path wherever it goes. It might only be able to see 2 miles ahead, but it's looking far brighter than what lies behind you.

So after a while you have to make plans regardless. The not being able to plan because you don’t know what lies ahead is the hardest part, I believe.

Great perspective. How long has it been, anyway? I think it always takes several months for this stuff to work itself out. It's so fantastic you're able to find joy in the process. A lot of other people aren't able to do that. I ran this week and felt a mixture of annoyance and relief with it. At first, I didn't want to go, but then I remembered how good those endorphins feel after awhile and when you're done. Huge help. Great post. Great perspective. How long has it been, anyway?
