T-minus about 6 hours until I wake up and head out. I wish I had some amazing insight about my time here and the significance of this move and going on to a new phase of my life and blah blah blah.
But when it boils down to it, there's nothing all that profound to say. For whatever reasons, this is the direction I'm headed right now. I don't know if I'll stay in Boston for the next couple of years or the rest of my adult life. I certainly don't know what I'm going to be doing with myself once I'm there. But I'm open to whatever comes.
What I know for sure is that the past 2 1/2 years in LA have been extraordinary. I've solidified old friendships and made new ones, many of which I expect will last well beyond this move. I've discovered quite a bit about myself, ranging from where my passions lie (and don't) to aspects of my character that I didn't even know existed.
It's amazing how 2 1/2 years can simultaneously feel so short and yet be packed with so much. I still don't think this has all really sunk in. But I'm very excited about the next four days on the road and whatever the world has to offer beyond that.
