I Don't Pray, I Move My Feet

[irishrosedkm]

I wish I could relax. I wish I knew how. People who have known me for years would call me laid back, cool-headed, accepting...but my mom is not wrong when she calls me tightly wound and high strung. I'm always going. Always looking for what is next, never satisfied with what I have now. I have a need, and emptiness that needs to be filled. A

That is...quite a lot of moving! I can see how you feel restless staying in one place too long now.

I have to say, I love your "Things to know before friending me" section. Nice little snap shot of who you are and what you write about.

Why, thank you! I do like to give people a fair warning beforehand. :D

I really like this entry. I view it as kind of exciting as I am the exact opposite. I was raised in a small town all my life where everyone knew me, and I knew everyone. I kept the same friends, for the most part, throughout high school and part of college. I grew tired of it all when I was 17 I think. I wanted to get out because I knew I didn't belong. It wasn't until I was 23 that I finally did leave. Moving sucks with a passion, but experiencing a new place for the first time was kind of exciting (and scary).

That's awesome! It takes a lot of guts to move, it IS scary! But exciting, congrats.

Thanks. Thank you for the good read, and for a view of how a constant mover feels.

Nicely written.

I traveled a lot as a young child, but settled eventually, but there's still a deep seated part of me that feels the urge to move on...

but home is really nice too

I'm the opposite - I've lived in the same place almost forever (since I was 2). I never expected to be that way, but all my stuff and people are here now.

I hope you find what you're looking for.
