Go Blindly

March 14, 2013

On Sepulveda blvd, they cut down all of the trees on the sidewalk, so now there’s nothing but a bunch of dead stumps in a row lining the street, reminding me of heads without bodies or bodies without heads. Just dead stumps in a sidewalk cemetery of lifeless bits of headless nature. The tree pictured above was not one of these stumps. It was just a poor tree that took a nose dive sometime between now and 24 hours ago. I thought I’d share.

Big change is afoot. Expensive change. I tell ya, the amount of money a person has to put up front to get the keys to their very own personal kingdom is ridiculous. My savings account literally won’t talk to me. But when you think about how little money matters in the world if say, a tiny meteorite were to graze our city, it kind of relaxes you a little. Sometimes, you just have to have to go blindly into your days with nothing but faith in your purse, hope that the expenses will even out, and the courage to tackle relocation. After all, transitions weren’t meant to be easy or predictable, you just have to take them as they come at you, like punches.

I’m getting the keys to my new place tomorrow. These next few days are going to be busy, and there might be a stretch of time in which I am unable to use my computer because it’s at my new place and that new place isn’t set up yet with electricity or wi-fi. But then again, I may not pack my computer until the very last minute, so there’s that too. None the less, let this serve as a warning that there might be a lull in posts (but I highly doubt it. This shit is too therapeutic for me not to be doing it).

Last but not least, I’m meeting so many cool bloggers for my Passion Series. I hope you enjoyed the post I published last night on Raegan Payne, and her mission to conquer 100 charities before the end of the year. I am learning a lot from each and every blogger I talk to, and I can’t wait to share their stories with you. They are motivating me to do more and more blog-related things, like attend conferences and maybe even speak at one of them one day! I love everything social, digital, and blog related, and I feel like this is the year I will truly be more and more immersed in it, and surrounded by people who have similar passions.

Here is the next installment of my moving videos. Until next time, remember there is salt water in your blood, and we all came from the same ocean.
