Leave everything behinds

Leave everything behinds

It’s just the beginning of dragon year which was Jan 25, 2012 and I will be flying out soon to Asia by myself to a foreign country.  I barely speak, write and read the language, Chinese.  I have chosen my path over my emotion, curiousness, and off course a dream to grow big.
My life in San Jose, CA was great: nice job, nice car, nice house, and off course the most understanding husband in the whole world.  But it’s not enough, I enjoyed my life and all the good things, but something is missing and . . .
been working as an accountant for more than a decade and I was still in the same level compare to my friends.  Yes I switched job often, not because I had an option, it’s a condition that forced me to.  Everything sounds so great and challenging in the beginning, but I got bored with the work in less than a year and nothing is good anymore.  I have tried many fields in accountant, but things are not always as you expected: bad company good boss not good pay, good company annoying boss small pay long commute, and . . . it’s not that I can’t handle the job, it’s the situation and all those small things that bothering me all the time, make me wonder. . . is this job suitable with my character?
Finally, a BIG decision and BIG changes happened for reason.  Leaving all the things I have behind including my husband to find my dreams and passions I was looking for. 

Things started with unexpected things, overweight luggage are acceptable, free upgrade to elite class and smooth security check in. 
It’s time to say good bye with a lot of emotion and uncertainty about the journey I have decided to follow. . . . I left the country I have live for more than 16 years

It’s January 26, 2012 at 12:05 am BR017 seat 27A.
