I'm leaving my first official experience of having an apartment and living on my own. I'm going to miss this…a lot. I keep looking around me and wondering where the time went. It's a week and a half until move-in at the new place and I haven't moved an ounce of anything.
I spent a year curating my perfect living environment, and believe me, it was perfect, but not the right time. You see I have financial goals that I want to meet and living here will not provide me the opportunity to meet them in the deadline that I have set for myself.
I need to live life, and I can't do it boggled down in debt. This discussion is for another post…
I had this fear of leaving this experience and moving into another because I don't like change and I thought the way I was living was perfect. It was so hard for me to comprehend that there is always something bigger and better out there. I completely forgot that when I was ending my internship in Seattle in 2017, I thought I was going to stay at Sequel Apartments when I returned to Seattle. When I returned last year to start my career, I wasted weeks sitting and waiting for the opportunity that never arrived. Come to find out, Elara randomly popped up on Apartments.com 2 days before I needed to leave my temporary housing. 5 days later, I'm moving into Elara and I'm like Sequel who? This apartment was 10x greater than I could have asked for, and I was just waiting for Sequel…psssh.
You just have to have faith that it will come to you in good time. We spend our lives trying to recreate past experiences, but that's it, it was in the past. And we…must keep moving forward and creating new experiences, and living and enjoying those moments as they occur.
