Hi Nea. It is strange not knowing any of the details of my lifestyle-to-be, but I know I’ll have an awesome time. I’ll be publishing my experiences on my second blog, due for launch next week. I’ll keep you posted.

I think you’re right. The idea came into my life exactly at the right time.

David,

What a wonderful opportunity you have created for yourself to learn to let go of fear! Leap before looking. I wish I had done a lot earlier than I did, but then, life knows exactly when we’re ready.

your bed, your food, your solitude all the things you thought were SO important will fade into nothingness

That’s a great perspective, you’re probably right. Thanks Brigid.

Hi Patty, welcome. That’s where I feel I’m at: creating adult life. I figure it’s about time.

You will LOVE this time
your bed, your food, your solitude all the things you thought were SO important will fade into nothingness.
The joy and variety of your life will enhance and enrichen ( is that a word) yours and everyone elses (or that?) lives.
The leap of faith is the most wonderful and hardest thing to do, yet we never regret it and can’t even imagine were we would be if we didn’t leap.
I’m so excited for you and look forward to reading this post in 1 or 2 years time. I wonder who you will be by then?

Hi David – Just discovered your blog. You’re embodying one of my favorite quotes: “Creative adult life requires the birth of many new dreams.” (Frederic Hudson). By letting go of what is you open the door to a continually self-renewing life. I hope you inspire others to do the same! Thanks.

Thanks for the typo alert, Brenda. I am blind to my own sometimes.

I love that quote on security. Humans largely suffer from an addiction to security, which is tragic because it’s something that can never really be attained. Security is just a feeling, and it never sticks around.

Proud to be your honorary son. I’ll try not to disappoint.
