Pursuing your dream: it ain't easy!

Books and articles that tout "pursue your dream" never tell you how hard it is to act on. To get up off the couch and "just do it." Today we bought a house a few states away. A few very big states. Although it too begins with "M" it is very different in many ways. We hope monstly good ways. It's about pursuing a dream before we look back and say "why didn't we?" Change requires energy. Inertia require little. Most forces and inclinations are to resist change and preserve the status quo. There's bonds to be broken, good byes to say, new habits and routines to learn. It seems harder the older you get. Not like when you are 22 and just pack your duffel and jump on a west-bound Greyhound. Change is healthy, staying off balance may be good. But it isn't easy.
