As one on the other end of life, change is always frightening. But it's unavoidable. And while it's hard to accept, the greatest growth in our lives comes not from times that are easy, but from those that challenge and wound us the most. There is no perfect career, but enjoy your work. Even a coffee shop job can be great if you enjoy your customers, coworkers. We spend so much time working, you should really like what you do. And while your family may be hours or even days of travel away, they will always be your family. Their love for you is unchanging and constant.
Remember to say 'I love you' often to those closest to you. It's OK to be afraid, but not to let fear stop you from embracing life. Even if you have your heart broken, and you will, Love is worth everything.
