Stepping away.

Yes, and once I did. I thank myself for having done so. It was a wild leap of faith. I know if I have had kept my old life, where my life may have been easier even now. It wasn't entirely from unhappiness, but more from an unease and restlessness within myself that made me do so. A lot of things happened in my life changed during that time I never could have foreseen, from my father dying a year after, to finding myself in photography school. It was unnerving, but sometimes that is a needed element of life. It can be very cathartic and telling.

Now I don't let that voice guide me as much. I wanted to once, but my circumstances were different. Now life is throwing a monkey wrench upon my life, my work is now closing, and for how I said no to my once desire, I'm having it handed to me. Mixed emotions, but that time guides me, this time may just be a gift.
