Time's approaching for another sabbatical. I think I've met my random thread posting quota for the moment @SG, and need to buckle down on where I want my next journey to take place. Could I focus on being here and still exist in the "real world?" Yes, but in all truth this place is filling a void that should be left to forming memories that are tangible, such as the trip I recently took to Salisbury Beach, MA. I want more experiences where I'm activley engaged in stepping out of my shell and creating a new version of who I am, what I like, etc.

There's no desire for me to share myself right now on here, to report my daily happenings like some journal entry. I just want to enjoy what happens, and let those immediately around me join in the knowledge. This feels like a reclusive stage for me, though it's something I love doing without any particular rhyme or reason. Guess I just needed to post for me own bit of closure.

With business finally picking up for me after months of uncertainty, I'm glad I can look back on the shit that's plagued me earlier in the year. Losing a job, losing a good friend to cancer...loss, loss, loss. Finally I can focus on what I've gained/am gaining.

Here's to the future.
