Portland Day
Today marks the forth anniversary of me moving from Warminster, PA to Portland, OR. It was the beginning of my West Coast adventure. I moved to Portland and I did not know anyone there, I did not have a place to live, and I did not have a job. All I had was a little money squirrelled. It proved to me that I can survive with out any support from other people. I know how to make my way through this world. Before I got to Portland I was afraid that I would just get depressed and shutdown at some time. I was afraid that I would not know how to face challanges when things got tough. I have been depressed a couple of times, but I have never shutdown.
This is how my time brakes down:
Four Years since I left Warminster and got to Portland
Three Years at TiVo and In San Jose
Two Years in my apartment building in Downtown San Jose
All of these things happened close to the same time each year.
I archived me highest level objective. I wanted to live someplace else in the country and say that I understand that place. I wanted my life to have been bigger then the Philadelphia area. I can say that I have lived a couple of places that I understand something about.
I am still very happy that I moved out west. I am still convinced that it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Time just moved without us having any say in it. I am not sure where those four years went. I know that I am happy that I spent that time out here, not telling myself that I am going to leave Warminster someday. I never planned to live in San Jose. It was not on my list of places to move. I am still happy that I my life has taken this turn. Who knows what it will be like next year.
Happy Portland Day .
