Closing the North Carolina Chapter

The conversations I have had with myself and those around me this week have really influenced me in phenomenal ways. When I think about the fact that I am leaving North Carolina in 5 days for the next chapter in this adventure, I reflect on what I have learned and how I have grown over the past 8 weeks. I honestly feel as though I have learned more about myself and what I am striving to accomplish these past 2 months than I have in the past 2 years. I have had more time to reflect and slow my mind down. I feel I have regained focus on who Sheila Hill is and what I believe my purpose in life might be based on my strengths, beliefs and values. I am currently taking the stepping stones to get there. I feel like I made the right choice walking through the doors presented to me and I am happy with where I am at. I realize I can always turn around and go the other way if it just isn't working!

I have a huge agenda the next 3-5 months and am so amazingly excited for it! I am leaving for Atlanta on Saturday to start the first leg of my second journey. I am living with a friend's mother for the month of August and am really looking forward to my time in Georgia and also traveling Alabama. I will be traveling a lot, but that is how I will get to see everything and meet people! I will also be spending a weekend in Myrtle Beach and a weekend in Tennessee. I think the month of August is going to fly by.

Next stop is in the air, but I am working on a definite plan for September. I will definitely be living life by the seat of my pants, but that is what I love. I have some ideas of what I might be doing, but stay tuned...

October is definitely Florida for the entire month. My goal is to see a ton of customers down there and also enjoy the beaches on the weekends. Hopefully hurricanes won't disrupt my plan!

I have the idea that I might need to settle down in November and at least get an apartment somewhere, but that will be determined when I feel like I want to do that. I am in zero rush at this point, as a tent sounds more appealing.

December I have a couple of vacations planned and then there is my birthday and the holidays. The rest of my year is tentatively planned, but it sounds like a goal accomplishing, fun and challenging year. I love it.

This week is going to be full of excitement and challenges, but I am so ready and so looking forward to it. I will try and check in this week, but if I am not able, I will write when I get to Atlanta.
