The impending moving day is drawing closer and I am beginning to question more and more if this was the wisest decision. Most expats will tell you that its a healthy fear as long as it doesn't drive you away from actually uprooting yourself and fulfilling the dream within your heart.
I am so privileged to have a safety net and amazing people to help me settle into my new life in California. They have planned trips, taken time off work and introduced me to other people in the film industry who will keep a watchful eye of me. And yet I am still afraid. I dared to put it all on the line and I can only gain a thousandfold.
J R.R. Tolkien said "A single dream is more powerful than a thousand realities". I have just one single dream in my heart and millions of realities that threaten to derail me.
My best friend always tells me "Life, eh? Always worth staying to see whats round the corner". She knows me too well. If this don't go according to 'plan' I freak and want to run a while but shes been then to hold me hand the entire time. Nothing can happen that I am unequipped to handle. I took a risk and by Jove it will pay off.
My advice to you reader; keep your dream alive at all costs and keep an open heart.
