Desisions

The gut feeling tells me that what we have decided as a family is the way and the future. It is sad to leave everything here behind, but on the other hand an adventure of exploring and self motivation.  In our natural essence we are explorers, explore the world explore your limits.  I personally have come to the point where I must look past he horizon and take the leap of faith and my gut feeling tells me that is the way this should be.  

I have taken some what a long time to come to this conclusion.  I have a good career in wich has been a good one.  I have risen from the man who loads the bags to the airplane with in our company almost 15 years ago until now as a the assistant to the director and chief pilot and the manager chief pilots office.  This country (Iceland) of mine has made me take the hardest decision of my life the decision to leave the island to find a better meaning full lives else where as ends do not meet financially here any more.  I have thought hard about this and this has been the once of the hardest and toughest decisions I have ever made.  If we stay we would quickly be engulfed by the flames of the decaying remains of the economy here (read the news and check my wallet).   I am generally stable and very earthbound person, for instance we have been working for the same company for many years. As Mark Twain said:

 "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream”. 

Our journey has started, the compass has been tuned and heading has been set.  My wife is half Norwegian and it is a good opportunity for her to get in touch with her inner self the other part of her she needs to know and for me to seek new opportunities and seek what we all desire, the answer to the meaning of life.

P.s they have some good fishing down there too!
