Step 1: Choose a launch site.

"You'll never leave where you are until you decide where you'd rather be."

Where I am right now is unacceptable. My life is at a standstill and my soul has hit rock bottom. This is good news. This means there's no where to go but up. But which way? 

Rather than focusing on how miserable I am right-now-at-this-moment it's time to start figuring out where I'm going. I have no idea what I want to do with my life (honestly, I never really have). Sure, I have things I've wanted to do, like learn sign language, so I've been basing my career choices on those sub-goals, but what I need now is a master goal, a big picture. So...

Where do I go from here?

Step 1: Choose a launch site.

I can't look at this as 'I'm stuck in Hendersonville, NC' anymore. This is where I am starting my new life, and I can make it be anything I want. It's going to be hard, and every second is going to be a fight for freedom (as evidenced by the fact that I'm >rightnow< getting fussed at for being on my computer for so long, just from writing this) but this is not a choice anymore. I'm getting out of here. I'm paving my own road. I'm starting right.now.
