The privilege of choice

on line cialis canterburymewscooperative.com Last night we decided to move to Europe for a year.

We can work from anywhere. High school is overrated. Lacrosse is a colossal disappointment. We long for a big city. And warm weather.

We’re tired of being sheep.

No one quite knows what it will look like. We need to ditch our stuff and make an enormous to-do list. But we’ve already begun the fun part : dreaming. July 2015 through July 2016. Thirteen months, 13 cities. Airbnb, VRBO.

Hate it? We leave.

We can eat all the eats, drink all the drinks, ogle all the art. Like a Parisian or Berliner or Florentine.

I want something different for the girl. I don’t want her worth tied to minutes played or SAT scores or the right AP class.

It’s not about quitting. It’s about the privilege of choice, reimagining the definition of success, defining our own story. I don’t know exactly what that looks like. For now, we’re simply saying no to shoulds and choosing discovery.

Here’s to exploration.
