Pre-Sleep Thoughts: Take Two

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?
