I usually let the blog sit quiet on Wednesday, but I have this song stuck in my head…
And what does it mean to leave?
Running from now to forever
Away from things
Maybe there’s better where I’m going
Better than the whatifs here
More possibilities there
The road calls to me
Making staying unlikely
Because I can only grow if I go
If this is my ticket, I’ll take it and leave
And find the better I’ve been missing
Somewhere else on down the road

Not sure if I know that song but now I have Fast Car by Tracy Chapman going round in my head, LOL!

I’d love a road trip somewhere right about now. I’ll happen soon. Hugs to you. 🙂
This can apply to many aspects of life, whether moving house, changing jobs, moving on from a relationship – anything which has gone beyond its time.
I particularly like the double meaning of “Because I can only grow if I go” – the only way to grow is to go, and also if i go then i can grow. Very profound.

Thanks for your thoughtful comment, RG. My thoughts are turning toward some of my upcoming changes.
Hope you get to take your trip soon. I need to soon, even if just for a day, before I end up going crazy around here.

It’s possibly. I was thinking about a host of things when I wrote this
A song full of wistful optimism, plagued by uncertainty and doubt.
Such is the human condition, the grass may be greener somewhere else, but it may not.
You can only find out by spinning the dice, having a look.
Taking that risk….
Do tell us all how it works out:-)

Will do. 🙂
I can see why it’s stuck in your head.
So many questions…
