[Nawooz.Com.My]

i wonder how it will feel, to start over in a new place. far away from the comforts of home, family, friends and everything we took for granted now. to breath the air in a new country, experience an alien culture and start over from scratch. people tell me it will be tough, but my heart yearns for greener pastures. this feels so wrong, but yet so right at times. why would we want to leave behind everything familiar to us? maybe, i am just trying to run away from my ghosts.

some of my friends tell me i’m like re-inventing the wheel all over again. how do you explain the feelings and emotions, which drives you to this decision? it’s like trying to explain the colours of a rainbow to a person, who was born blind (i apologize if this analogy is inappropriate).

call it a gut feeling or just plain illogical, but this is where my heart seems to point and i usually try not to ignore that voice. have you heard the saying, “common sense is not all that common”? i wish i knew what is in store for me. to know before you take that first step, that might change your life forever, be it better or worse.

in past history, many individuals have been through this situation. bill gates dropped out of Harvard to pursue a different career path. brad pitt was a hotel bellboy before he shot to stardom. who knows, maybe all of us have choices in some point of our lives without us being fully aware of it. crossroads to some lofty destiny. one thing is for sure though, it sure is going to be difficult to turn back and start over, once the decision is made. wish me luck.
