Almost…Moving On
Posted by vonn on August 26, 2009 in Lighter Side |
I moved to a new apartment this past weekend Just the other side of the complex. (I got a garage!)
But, this small move has me more out of sorts than when I moved from Chicago to Bloomington two years ago. Maybe it’s because the apartment is almost the same as the one I left. Almost the same layout. Almost the same drawer system. Almost the same sunlight patterns.
Almost.
I think it is easier when you are thrown into a completely new situation versus a “moderate” change. Old habits and muscle memory react to “almost.” Somehow the opportunity to start-over and re-create seems further away when it is “almost.”
Maybe we have the idea of baby-steps all wrong….
they don’t represent small change….
they represent standing up and moving on.
