Here goes the thing, we went to a very nice place. It could have been a writers getaway; so serene. There were trees, gardens, museums, and mansions to explore but we didn't do any of that. We went to the nearest mall, went to the movies, ventured to restaurant next door, and stayed at the hotel. Although I didn't mind spending all day at the Best Buy buying a gaming computer that would allow my hubby to play Gears of War 5 when it first came out, I became exhausted by doing nothing meaningful. I did not experience anything new. I did not meet or talk to any interesting people. I stayed in my bubble even when I was set in an environment to expand my air space.
This is the future advice that I give myself.
EXPLORE THE WORLD
Do not be afraid to leave your comfort zone. Go new places, meet new people, and do something different. I think we create habits that set us to the tune of comfort. What ever is most familiar to us, that is what we do. I am not going to do that anymore. I am so ready for my freedom. I am so ready to explore the world.
I am at a new space in my life but I am realizing that I am making decisions that I am comfortable with. I am not being vulnerable which means I am not growing. I'm trying to expand in this area. I remember Brene Brown talking about this. She says: "You can have courage or you can have comfort but you can't have both."
I am now adopting the courage to live life for a purpose. I want to explore all that God has for me to experience. I don't want to keep doing the same thing over and over again. I want to go places and see new things so that it will all be worth it. I want this life to be worth it.
