I was on my way to Hoagie Haven for a quick bite to eat, as I was starving, and I got to thinking (is it a good idea to think on an empty stomach?)
I like Hopewell, Princeton etc. I have a decent job, and if I had to, I'm sure I could find another, as we are smack dab between two of the biggest US cities. I enjoy discovering new places and taking my leisurely Sunday drives. All in all, not a horrible place to be.
While there are some practical and quite convincing reasons that keep me here, I came to the revelation that no one ever said I had to stay. It's not like I have chains around my ankles binding me to this place. I know it's not such a hige revelation or anything, but it has helped me realize that I live here willingly and happily on my own free will, yet at some point, that free will may or may not lead me elsewhere.
That being said, I just looked at some real estate in Knoxville. Bloody hell...I could actually afford to own my own place there. A good quality of life mized with a low cost of living. What a concept.
