I've been very restless with where I'm at in life. Constantly questioning every single thing. One thought that came to mind that I had never really explored before is why I stay in my own country. Whenever I think about moving I've only thought of moving to a different state. Florida, Georgia, out west, always somewhere within the borders of my home country. Why? I have never thought about moving to a new country before. The world is so large and I have only constricted myself to living in one tiny part of it.
This came to mind because I've been looking at taking the train somewhere for my birthday weekend. Since I only have the weekend and the States are absolutely abhorrent in the availability of public transport, it must be relatively close by. I was looking at Niagara Falls. I've never been and haven't been to Canada in a very long time. Then I realized that a friend I may be going with doesn't have a passport. These imaginary boundaries that humans have placed on the Earth are frustrating. If only I were able to simply continue moving north over this large land mass I am currently on. But...no. I need a card or a booklet to continue on my way. This made me think of all the other land masses I have never visited. I could even live there if I wanted. The American way of life is the only thing I know but what if it isn't the right lifestyle for me?
