This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for January 01, 2008:
I'm feeling very uncertain right now. I'm making lots of big decisions, and those decisions have significant impact, but I'm not really sure about any of them, other than the one that says "I have to get out of Boston."
I'll be moving to Seattle in a matter of weeks.
I'll start a new job there with Microsoft.
I'll make new friends, and have new coworkers.
I'll have to work to remain in touch with all of my dear friends on the East Coast.
I'm leaving behind a relationship or 4 1/2 years that we've decided to end.
God please be with me as I do these things. God forgive me if I've chosen wrong.
So, what am I most looking forward to? Starting over. Putting a horrible 2007 behind me. Resetting on who I am and what I value most. Breathing.

Scott, I feel Seattle has great things for you. You haven't chosen any wrong choices, they all are within your path for greatness! Enjoy the new ride in a wonderful town! You have many earth angels who God has given you who will be supporting your path…trust all is right with you and your world. The best to you in your new journey…
Friend,
You can't muck up the big stuff. Where decisions matter- you can't make the wrong one. It simply doesn't work that way. You have too many guides that have too much invested for you to “throw the dice” where your Life matters.
It's that simple.
Thanks for the kind words….
My view of it all is just that, assuming one has the comfortable lifestyle of an upper-middle-class American, there aren't many Big Decisions in life. You know, things that are true inflection points. And I've had a few lately, and they're all close calls, and I've tried to make those decisions with as much grace as possible. So… the decisions are made, I'm getting ready to head down those new roads, and I'll not often look back and wonder about other paths.
But, at this moment, I'm a bit weary from the drama, and feeling reflective. As the new journey begins, it's appropriate to pause and look around and take a deep breath about what I'm leaving behind, and to hope that the decision to leave behind is the right one, before I turn towards the sun and head off. I'm old enough to know that such journeys are easier with the wind at my back, and that thinking that such journeys can be accomplished alone is a young man's folly.
It will all pass, as it always does, and I'll re-find myself on the other side. I trust the Universe in the meantime…
