"To get yourself a new life you've got to give the other one away."

Moving to a new place almost means becoming a new person, to me at least. I have to learn how to operate in this new space, and that will most definitely mean a change in habits. I'm hoping that this will be a good change for me. I will be different, right?

There are some things that need to go. I can't keep living in a box like I have been for the past two years. (Even though my new place literally feels like a box.) I just don't know what to leave behind. I don't know what parts of myself to let go of. I don't want to abandon a feeling or an escape only to find that I really do need it. I've done that before, and now I'm here with nothing.

Starting back at square one means opportunity, but I rarely take advantage of that. I can try to force it by moving away and putting myself in a position that I honestly think is dangerous, but what if I still don't respond? What if I'm that scared, that I would risk it all just to do nothing?
