I'm standing at the crux of a major transition in my life, once again. It's both exciting and scary. The unknowns are running through my head. The fear of the uncertain, the unsettled. But that part of me that knows, just knows. If the opportunity presents itself (I'll know in the next week), I'll be bound for Bishop, California, at the foothills of the great Sierras.
Yesterday was my second interview with Inyo County, for a position as a therapist doing in-home services with youth. I anticipate the job will be challenging, in that good, healthy growth sort of way. If I'm offered the position, I'll be leaving my wonderful Ventura county, to a place I have wanted to move to for many years. While traveling in Italy after undergrad, I looked for jobs but was unsuccessful. And I've occasionally perused job listings in the area ever since. I'm drawn to Inyo County for numerous reasons, and some of them fall into the range of the unexplainable.
So uncertainty rests on my mind. But there's a calm comfort somewhere in there. A sense of returning to a home I have never known.
