RE: I've wandered with all my heart

I understand the fun of planning, even when you can't follow through right away.

I had never lived away from the general area I was born in and was ok with that. One day, a man's words made me wonder if I could even actually live far away from my family and still be happy. I planned an imaginary trip half a country away, not just to visit, but to live. I was just curious what it would actually take to do it. I didn't plan it fast, but by the time the planning was done, I was excited and actually wanted to go !

I asked myself, what's the worst that could happen, I'd go, I'd lose everything I had and would have to call home to ask someone to send me a plane ticket home. I didn't expect anything like that to happen, but decided I could live with that and then I put my plan in place and moved half a country away and lived there for 6 years.

You never know what may come out of planning..... 😊

Hope ya'll had a very nice evening.

That's a lovely story of how a little planning just for the enjoyment of it can lead to interesting places! I think, with us, it's partly that because if the trip is planned it seems more likely to occur. We had a nice Saturday evening beginning the planning and will do so again.
