005. Plans

Today I hit another bump in the road.

Which made me realise that my problem was never about leaving it all behind (I would in a heartbeat, or less.

Instead, the problem (as it has been and always will be) where do we go from here? It is not the fear of leaving it all behind but the fear of not knowing what is to come that is holding me back. The severity of the known is always preferable to the uncertainty of the unknown.

Such is the argument of the weak and cowardly, of which I am both.

It seems the only way out now is to give the uncertainty of the unknown a clear destination. Of course not for the sake of having a destination or somewhere to go but the simple comfort of knowing that if I do decide to abandon this place, at the very least I would have a road to travel on.

Simply put then, I need a plan.
