| | I've lived in NYC for the past 4 years and now I'm moving to DC. It seems that moving is the one constant of my 20s. In this decade, I've moved from Virginia to SF to NYC and now to DC.
When I left San Francisco, I always thought I'd come back. I loved living out there. In many ways, I grew up and matured a lot during my years in the Bay Area. There will always be a place in my heart for San Francisco and I'll always remember the time I lived there. But now, I don't think I'll ever make it back there.
So now I know that there are no guarantees in life. I'd like to come back to NYC, but I said the same thing about SF. Who knows if I'll end up back here or if I'll stay in DC or even Chicago, Texas, Miami or Seattle. There's just no guarantee of anything.
I tried to see as many people and do as many things New York as I could last weekend. Even then, I took a few moments and sat in my favorite little quiet part of midtown, Worldwide Plaza, where I've spent many hours the past few years reading, relaxing and people watching. I reminisced about my time in NYC. I actually shed a few tears behind the sunglasses. I'll miss this city.
But now its on to DC and a new adventure awaits.
You have to enjoy life as it comes because there's no guarantee of what tomorrow will bring.
