Hey friend!

I hope you are doing well. It has been a pretty steady few weeks for me in terms of my mood. I did have a really bad cold which has pretty much left me, thankfully! I have been spending most of my time at home with my dog with not much to do. I hate that! I am used to working and ready to get back to working. I have been so bored lately. So bored that I wish I had a job, or an office, or somewhere to go! Eventually I will have somewhere to go… I hope!

I have been thinking a lot about moving. Moving back to Florida to be closer to family. I love New York but I just feel so alone. I am literally here by myself. I wish my siblings were closer so I can invite them over to watch a movie and order Wing Stop. I wish I could go to lunch with my mom. I’ve spent four years in New York City. I think that’s enough for now. The warmth is calling my name! The parks are calling my name! I’ve been really thinking long and hard about it. There is this job that I would love that is in Orlando that literally pays more than the job in New York I accepted. I am pondering going because nothing is holding me in NYC anymore really.

I have started journaling and want to share some of my journal prompts. Today’s is — What is stopping you from you and your dream life?

When I think of my dream life I am in Orlando closer to family. I am driving again and living in a luxury apartment. For my career I am working with families and children removing barriers from their life so they can thrive. I am making the world a better place one therapy session at a time. Can I do that in NYC, yes but it wouldn’t really be my dream. The dream feels like it’s more in Orlando.

I think the biggest things stopping me is living in NYC. I fear the NYC chapter is closing and Orlando is starting again!

More later,

Antonio
