It's never too late

For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the courage to start all over again.
Eric Roth - A Curious Case of Benjamin Button

This is by far my favorite quote, ever. 

I have this printed out and I used to have it hanging by a tack at my desk when I worked at IFA. It reminded me that no matter what, I could always start over. I didn't have to wait for some huge event to take place or for a natural beginning to begin again. I have started over many times. 
Sometimes it was because things got stale. I needed the change, so I would rearrange things and begin again in hopes that I would find a revelation that would set me on the right path to where I wanted to really be. 
I'm still not there. I will be though. I'm sure of it.

It reminds me that sometimes the rules that I was living by were made up and I could break those rules and make my own and start over again! I love making my own rules. Like the rule, the laundry doesn't ever get folded, just recycled into the chair of clean clothes. I hate laundry. 

It reminds me to make the best of things. There's so many times I could have just rolled over and let life run me over. I didn't. I made the best of what was handed to me. I always managed to add a bit of vodka to my lemons....er, I mean water. 

So, here I am, heading into a part of my life, where I chose to completely shake things up and rearrange things. You see, apart from college, I've never lived anywhere but little bitty Cortez, CO. Well, from what I can remember anyways. So, I decided it's time to leave. I'm moving to Colorado Springs, CO in about a week. I hate big cities. They scare me. But starting over somewhere I've never really experienced before is just what I need. I may be 30 and I should be settling down, but remember, it's never too late!
