A long travel day ahead!
Greetings!
Sitting at the KCI airport. I was worried about the backlog from Snowmageddon 2025 and arrived at the airport 2.5 hours early. Walked right up and through security. I have impressed myself with my packing ability here. I’m gone for 3.5 weeks. It’s only taken decades to get it down. I have 2 carry-ons. (Insert pat on my back).
I’m excited for this trip. I love to travel. It fills my soul. However, I have to admit….I believe I’m ready to be stationery for awhile. I have not been at a home, at my home for more than 3.5 weeks since August 2023. I have been living out of suitcases and boxes and bouncing around to various cities at friend’s homes or hotels or AirBnBs. Yes, some of this travel has been scheduled fun and relaxation, much of it has been necessary or as I might say, “have to/obligatory”; all of it humbling.
I have told some that I don’t have a reason to be “stationery.” I’m one lucky and very blessed individual because I am able to make this choice. Yet, I moved to Kansas City for a reason; to begin living again, to make a new life, and to prosper and thrive in this next stage of my life.
Yes, I’m scared. Shitless, actually.
I had a conversation the other day and these words came out of my mouth - “I am always leaving.” WOA! Still overthinking this one.
I’ll leave you with that thought for now as I wait to board my flight to Atlanta and continue to contemplate the deep-seated meaning of that statement.
With love and deep gratitude,
Tiff
