I know Imma be leaving Texas at the end of the summer or thereabouts, the question is where. I have several places I've been thinking about that each have their own draws.
Utah has my nephews, friends, girls, and the possibility to go back to school to get a bigger degree and a higher paying job. I love doing massage, but it isn't proving to be that lucrative.
Missouri has most of my family either there or close unto and my childhood friends. I know I'd be happy there but jobs are not great paying. On the other hand life is cheaper there. I love Missouri, I really really do. It feels like home every time I'm there.
Islands, be it Hawaii or Cayman. I love the tropics, I love the plants and the ocean and sea life. I could be happy there, but I wouldn't have any of my family.
My last option is to just leave entirely and retire from humanity. By this I mean I'd disappear to the Philippines and write off the rest of my life and the States.
I haven't even thought more about it than what I've laid out above. I don't know what to think and which to think about. I am leaning really strong in one direction over the others, but there's a fairly close second in the mix. I don't know, I just don't know. I guess I need to find somewhere and somehow to be happy and financially stable...but where?

It's a tough decision. Can you imagine being a space explorer? You'd go years without seeing family - decades even! I guess you just have to follow your zen, find where you feel happy. I'm always afraid of missing out but I suppose I only see most of you a few times a year as it is. What difference would it make if I were a few thousand miles further? It's still a plane ride or phone call or email message away.
