Take Off
With the beautiful and frightening idea of moving my mind has been a constant hundred-mile an hour cluster of what it would be look. How exhilarating to leave behind everyone I know- the world I hate so much yet lean on out of knowing familiarity. So, if I were to have to leave tomorrow (from a perfect job opportunity or the shear inability to deal with my current situation) what would I bring?
I am feeling this strong gypsy urge to move and keep moving. To be light and not be held down because there is something out there calling me and I want to make sure I am capable of reaching it.
So here are my priorities- for the next step in my life these are the immediate things I want to rid myself of:
my DVD players,
my Xbox
my Super Nintendo,
my television,
unnecessary clothing,
junk jewelry and hodgepodge,
excess cosmetics,
excess art supplies,
excess sewing fabric
and books that don't mean the world to my character.
If I were to leave tomorrow these are the things I must take with me:
my cat,
the rats,
journals and sketchbooks
my computer,
my photo morgue,
essential clothes
my camping tent
cooking supplies
bedding,
essential jewelry,
and essential art supplies.
The item that is by no means absolutely necessary to bring (and only because it is bad form, it is taboo, it is sacrificial, it is too hard to bear) is a partner. This is the hardest thing for this is the one I most want to pack up and run away with.
