Have you ever been to a restaurant where you could not decide between two meals? They were so different, yet you loved them both equally. Now, have you ever felt this way about life? Have you or are you, in love with two different lifestyles, but you can only have one? I am.
Here's what it is like:
For me, these consist of two very VERY different lifestyles:
On one hand I love the city, the rush, the fast paced energy. I love waking up in a studio apartment that has a view of the skyscrapers. I enjoy walking the two blocks to the studio to do pilates and ballet. I love going to work dressed in high end fashion and making hundreds of thousands of dollars. I long for shopping in the city on the weekends and meeting a friend for tea in a cafe on sunday mornings.
I love this lifestyle. But I also love my other option:
I love a small town, waking up to the sunrise and the smell of fall. I enjoy heading out for a run or driving to a mountain for a hike. During the week I am in love with my job of being a small town small business owner, not making a ton, but able to do more. It's slower, more relaxing. I like not having to dress up, and worry about appearance. I enjoy spending my weekends cutting the grass and shopping at the local mall and making all my meals at home.
These lifestyles are so different, yet each have half of my heart. I can't have both, so which should i choose? How should i choose? I am sure that I am not the only one with heavy weighted decision, so if you have ever been through this, or are going through it, what are you doing? How are you addressing it?
