Taking the long way around...

I have always taken the long way around. It's just how I'm wired. It should come as no shock, that it has taken me years to embrace this. The moment I did though, I had an "aha" moment. Everything became a little more clear. Like I could finally take a long awaited deep breath. I moved to a city(Nashville) 8 years ago that is known for being a 10 year town. Everyone here sort of settles in for the long haul. I love living in a place where it's normal not to take shit from people. Where it's expected to not kiss all the asses you're told to. Oh wait, that's being an adult, but we shall move on. Most people are passing through,like moi. Thank God I am just passing through on my way home. Ironically, I always thought I would settle down in Nashville. I held on to that notion for a while. It made sense in my head but never dug its roots in my heart. i'm convinced that if i quit taking the long way around, i wouldn't find my way home. so if you want to find me, i can still be found taking the long way around. Cheers!
