I'm leaving. Well in one year I am... haha. I am leaving Dallas and moving back to my birthplace, Galveston, TX next March. My mom and her birth father and I took a trip there this weekend and I was sitting on a deck at some little bar on the beach when it just hit me....
I need to be somewhere that makes my soul smile.
I love Dallas, it's turned me in to the confident, strong, healthy woman that I am, but I feel myself being drawn somewhere else, I feel the need to move on. When my lease is up, I will have been in Dallas for 3 years; I feel it's time to make my mark somewhere else.
I can't wait to get back to the beach.

Mom has a picture like this of me when I was 3-she wanted to re-create it. |
