Traveling Nomad: Pissed off Nomad

Ok now I am at the stage when I am just really pissed off. I was reluctant, then I was curiously holding my cards close to my chest, I transitioned from this to being open and now I am just ready. In my mind I have always been ready but I had to journey with myself and I. I am to the point I am ready to leave, it is not that I just want to leave but I want to get away from where I am. I have always found it hard going through a slow process but I know it is a good thing because you can go through a range of emotions that otherwise would not have been possible. I feel like I have taken a step and it seems like forever for the rest to catch up. I can get set on something and I just want to do it. I feel a tug of war, I still have to live here and go through the daily grind but yet I want to be away.

The pissed off part comes more from my job than with life here. I have made a decision for something better in my life, but tomorrow I have to go to work….aaahhhhh. I really used to love my job, but I either I am ready for something different or my job really just sucks. Wanting to be somewhere else does not help my jobs chances at getting much favorability. So I just dont know, but I do know this, unless I win the lottery I will have to stick it out until my butt is on a seat at 30,000 feet heading for somewhere with exotic food and a range of colorful culture.

The mention of a new culture is like a breath of fresh air that will sustain me for the remainder of my time here. I can feel it, the new smells and sounds, being absorbed by the overloading of my senses. This is very exciting and making everything bearable. I know I will hit a wall many times before we leave for our mid life travel crisis but it is part of the journey and needs to embraced as much as the far off people we will meet, otherwise I will miss out on the NOW and that is the most important thing. Heres to the journey Nomads on the run.
