Placing the pieces of life's puzzle

I find it strange to sit and wonder just where life is planning to take you. Thinking back through all my moves. Took my first breath of air in central NY, had dreams to live in the south, to play volleyball in college, so I moved to SC my senior year in high school. Thankfully with the support of my mother's. Did the college thing, always kind of thought it was pointless. Got a decent job to get me through some of the tougher times in my life. Worked my way up in the company. At one point I truly thought that I would never leave that place.

But then I was offered another job, 7 hours away from all that I have known. Still too soon to know if it was a "better" job. But it allows me to eat, and make sure my Luna can eat. Allows me to have a place to stay and a bed to sleep in. Gives me a place to be for 8 hours a day. Until I come home and scribble down all these thoughts and spill all of all the sh*t that runs through my head.

Then I find comfort in knowing this is just another piece of the puzzle to this crazy, and beautiful life. At the end of the day I know I can actually go anywhere. The hard part is settling your mind to understand that the next piece isn't going to fit your puzzle until you actually find that piece, and you turn it one side at a time checking to see if this is the way it goes. If it doesn't fit you keep looking for another piece, and another.

So this current piece that just lined up is just another part of the bigger picture. Piece by piece you watch it come together.

I can't help but wonder where the next couple of pieces will take me. Daydream about where I want to go next, or where my next opportunity will take me. But at least I will know at the end of each day, I can close my eyes and enjoy the journey.

All my light and love <3
