Uncharted Territory

Uncharted territory conjours up visions of new beginnings, starting over, and grand adventures.

But what happens when the uncharted territory becomes the norm?
When you start over so many times so close to each other that starting over becomes second nature?

What does uncharted territory mean when the cartography of your past five years looks like blank spaces, question marks, and goodbyes?

The best answer I have is to cling to the things of life that will always be charted...

A few friends.
Your family.
The feelings of being invested in a place.
Belly laughs.
The bittersweet feeling of goodbye.
And the crisp sound of the page turning sometimes too quickly and the anticipation of what or who waits for you in the next chapter.
