Exploration, the essence of being

So, as the blog title states, City Girl: Stuck in the Wrong City?, which is me, Robin, I feel that nothing is going to be done, unless you start looking in other directions. There is no point sitting here wishing things were different, for it will never happen unless you try it.  Failure is part of life, it's part of the learning process, it just does not have to be the end result.  There is always more to be found, explored, learned and taught.  The trick is learning to pick oneself up from their own boot straps and make something of it.

• You never know if you are in the wrong city, unless you explore the other cities that are around, or you get the wrong gut feeling.  Here, let's call it the gut.  There is just something that doesn't feel right.  So here I am in the exploring stages.... Exploration into the wild blue yonder, but where will the exploring occur.  The searching begins, as there is no reason not to explore, I'm young, and I have no reason not too. The beginning stages in my opinion the hardest part, as the options are endless.

I'll always be stuck in the wrong city for me if I do nothing about it.  Consider this blog, me starting to do something about it.  Nothing will happen except for always being stuck in the wrong city.  Boring!  So let the exploration begin!

Exploration Stage: the stage where you find new things, see old things in new light, explore the unkown, and take chances, to expolore more and find out more that is suppose to be done in your story.

So, the book is wide open, the chances are many.  It's all in the matter of fulfilling the dream with what is meant to be.  The best time to start such journey is now, as my ties are minimal and my curiousity is high.  But where do I begin?  How do I embark on this journey, a journey with no end result, end destination in site, just one where fun is to be had.  The real question lies, where can I pack up all my things, load up my things, and head.... head to an untravelled destination.  A place that I can learn more about me.

It's not that I don't want to be a teacher, because I do, it's just that I want a new adventure tied to it.
