Leave...

 Reasons to leave... 
-Get out of debt
-live an extraordinary life 

Yesterday as I took the kids on a walk, I noticed a large dark cloud in the sky. It smelled terrible as we continued our walk, and it followed us as well. I later read that it was from the Los Cerritos area of Long Beach, and PVP pipes were burned, along with tires and mattresses. Toxic. On our walk yesterday, I also saw an airplane flying above us, and just a few feet away cars were racing by. This is our little Long Beach CA "paradise" I guess. I know that when I cross the busy street, it's less chaotic. And there lies peace for us... and I am thankful for it. But all in all, it seems as though my heart longs for more. More nature. More trees, more space for my growing kids to be kids and climb trees. Babies don't keep, I know that. How many more years do we have before they grow up? Although my heart aches to leave "home" I know there is no better time than now.
