Pack 'n' Go

Blog 47 … 
         Just when you think you have settled in one place long after moving around about a dozen or so times, life events change.  Taking roots in a place, you discover, is completely a fantasy.  You know that nothing is truly permanent in life, yet you insist on defying the changes that it dictates.  Why so?  Economics time and time uproot you and me, so do feelings of boredom and stagnating lives at our workplaces.  Desire to be closer to family uproots us too, but nothing as strong as fulfilling goals and dreams.  Packing up and going to someplace new is cumbersome, but when it hypnotizes us, when it promises to suck us up and regurgitate us to another place where we could be once more alive, where we could start out again, dream again, and aspire to go beyond what we could be, uprooting ourselves makes perfect sense!
