So, the reason I have started this blog is to document what is happening in my life, and why I am doing exactly what I'm doing as some people think I'm crazy. When I finished high school I had the desire to travel the country and explore what is out there and what each area had to offer someone like me. I had never really left central IL, my home since birth, for more than a week here or there, but the burning sensation to leave was ever present and always in the back of my mind.
Like many others I quickly fell behind due to poor business and financial decisions. I had a decent job, but my hobbies and greed to take those to the next level put me in debt far past a comfortable level. Before I knew it I was stuck. I couldn't leave my job because of debt, I couldn't sell off stuff because it wasn't worth nearly as much as I paid for it new, and besides I was having a great time playing with my toys.
Years went by and I dealt with my situation, but that desire to explore the country side never left. In the last year or so I have got my debt down to an acceptable level and the light at the end of the tunnel has become brighter by the day. Within the last few months I have started to have dreams about hiking in the mountains, riding my mountain bike on seemingly endless trails, and waking up to the sunrise and song birds. The desire to have a nice home, vehicle, fancy dinners has escaped my mind all together. In return I ask for true happiness and my health...nothing else.
So it begins. My journey for true happiness with no regrets.
