Moving

I guess the following could be said about either moving in or moving out.
Both require organization, self-preservation and a lot of energy.
They also require removal of self.
It's easy to move things in and out, it's harder to place yourself in a new place mentally.

In my case this new place is new in more ways than one.
There are all of the normal things like nail holes, figuring out what goes where, vacuuming and dusting this new space.
And then there are all of those surprise things...like still feeling like a stranger, and avoiding certain pictures that once adorned my last space.
Though everyone will tell you that change is good and healthy, sometimes it's downright depressing.

Before moving back in the space was prepped...no longer a testament to all of the years that preceded my three year absence.
Now it's a gallery of new things and new goals.
It's funny...when you plan too far in advance, life has a way of putting things back into perspective, the here and now is what is important, everything else is too far ahead to worry over.
I plan on living that plan...in the here and now.
