I'm Leaving...

It’s strange to be making a choice to leave my life behind. I can't shake some sadness and regret. I don't know what to do. I don't know how to prepare; am I supposed to act like everything is normal?
It seems dishonest to try to get involved in on-going commitments. I won't be around. Everything is going to go on. Without me.
Maybe I felt like this when I moved here from Virginia, but I don't remember. I was hoping to think through to some realization while writing, I didn't.

Interesting choice of words.

What life are you leaving behind? You are leaving situations and some people, but you're not leaving a life.

Life is all about moving. Even people who seem like they are standing still are full of movement on the inside.

Wow, I feel all existential now. It hurts my head.
