Left and Leaving

[cptbuttondown]

"I'm thinking about cashing in my savings and just going to finish up school." I suggested it at the dinner table, just to bounce the idea off my mother. She has been the most steadfast supporter of my education since my youth, just as a mother should be. However, my statement caught her off guard

well, should you decide you wanna check out the north, there is a couch to crash on in minneapolis.

That's cool if thats what you choose to do but i'd suggest you wait til i'm done and then pick up and leave because much like schools my career can take me anywhere.......sports are everywhere, but if you go somewhere I like maybe i'll follow.

if you need to get out to stretch your legs, fuck what any 'friends' may say. Do what YOU need to do. Don't live your life for other people. If they don't honestly support you, then maybe you should rethink calling them friends. See, that's the thing, friendship is like love: its not a one way street; if it turns into (or always was) a one way street, then it was never real to begin with. Quality. Honesty.

And I'm proud of Alan for moving away. I'd be proud of you, too.

Not that my opinion holds any value to anyone anymore anyway.

"Stretch your legs" is a great way to put it. Moves are never permanent. You can always go back.

And thanks Abby. Your opinion does matter.
