It makes me happy to see how many replies I have received. I think I need to just suck it up and grab life by the horns as they say. I dont know what I am going to do yet, but I think an adventure is in order. I have some soul searching to do. I have been talking to my parents today and they listen to me, which I am grateful for. They understand what im saying and they arnt saying no to a lot of my ideas. Its really all in my hands. I just need to to take that step. I think that will be the hardest thing. Ive been going down the same road all my life [metaphorically] and i think its time i try a different route, even if its not a shortcut. Thanks for all the posts. You guys brought a smile to my face today...
