To Do List

Lately, I have been trying to master my own sort of "LIFE" to do list. With a huge change recently, I am bombarded with the fact that my future is pretty much wide open... and it is up to me alone to make things happen the way I want them to. I know this should sound pretty great... but honestly- change is not usually my thing. I enjoy routine and order and companionship and safety. So, to say that I am scared of what is next would not be an understatement.

As an anal, worrier as myself tends to do, I have been working on this to do list. Now, I am not talking about things like- clean the house, donate old clothes, call your Grandma. I am talking about- decide on what your dreams are, determine and perfect your talents, move away from home (break away). The problem I am facing with all of this is that with said list comes a lot of unknowns. It makes me super envious of people who just seem to know what they were born to do/where to live/what to become as an adult.

I am sure there is a blog or book or guru out there that could point me in the right direction, but I feel like (for the first time possibly ever) that I will embrace this sense of alone-ness and just figure it out.

In the mean time- I must admit that I have an amazing life. My friends and family and job have been the most uplifting and encouraging components of a pretty difficult time. Speaking of friends- I have a new one. Their name is Bon Iver, and they sing the sweetest songs. Enjoy:

Cheers!
