Moving Forward while Looking Back

I am going through many changes in my personal and professional life, of finding out who I am and what I am supposed to be when I grow up.  I spent the last 3 years of my life working in a high stress corporate job, and sure, the pay was great, but I found myself feeling empty at the end of the day.  Always asking myself, "is this really what my life is going to be like?"

Well, if you know me, you know I am not the type of person who is okay with complacency...at least not for very long.  I decided to venture into this new, exciting and at times very intimidating world of photography.  I threw myself into classes and month by month have built up my inventory of equipment.  I am now feeling this renewed sense of self and achievement.

I have to look back on the 3 years we spent in the Minneapolis area, it really served my husband and I well.  I miss some of the food, nightlife and culture, but what I miss most are some of the most amazing people I have ever met in my life.  I truly have to say I met some of the nicest people I have yet to come across and I am a better person for having them in my life.

Well, to speak to the title: I am very excited for the road that is ahead of me, even though I'm not really sure where that road is going yet.  I find peace when I look back on the last time I felt this uncertainty and it ended up being 3 years of my life well spent.  So here goes nothing Illinois!  I'm back and ready for action, now where is the best comedy club and a good place for sushi?!

I created a weebly blog after seeing how simple it looked.
