Change....
The Tiki bar is now open....
Boat drinks are now being served.
Change is an interesting word. The word “change’ is very simple in its meaning, but can be very complicated when we try to “change”. I wonder why that is?
Change is filled with emotions; some of which can be more complex than others. What is it about change which can bring tears of joy but also bring tears of sadness? Why are some people afraid of change while others embrace it? I have pondered that thought more than you can ever imagine. I wonder if fear has anything to do with it?
Fear is a word which I think protects us as well as holds us back when it comes to change. Many times in life we come into a situation which will require us to make a decision on whether or not to make a change in our lives. Fear will make us look at all the decisions we have made in the past and make us question whether or not we can make a change. On the other hand, I think some people know how to embrace fear. When you face your fear, you can finally make that change and move on to your next journey in life. Which now brings me to my journey.
My journey will take me from Fort Lauderdale to Naples Florida. I am ready to embrace my new challenge. A new job, new friends and maybe something new that I don’t even know about yet. My change has many emotions. I know I am saying so long for now with so many of my dear friends. But I also know I will be making some new ones along the way.
I remember when I first came to Hollywood/Fort Lauderdale area. I was excited and really nervous all at the same time. What is a kid from the Midwest going to do in a place like this? EVERYTHING! The life that I have here is a direct reflection of the people around me. I could name everyone and tell you stories about each and everyone of you. But that means you would be reading this for days.
Relationships are not built over night but I have over time witnessed people coming to together for a common goal and do some amazing things. People come in and out of our lives and we will never be the same. I am a firm believer if you surround yourself with good people, you will always have friends helping you when it comes time to make your change.
Let it be known up and down the southeast coast of Florida, Hollywood Humph is leaving town…. Naples bound.
It has been a pleasure….
That is all….
