It's raining today. The temperatures are down to 25-26C today.
I have to move away from my home soon for work.When there's a turning point in your life...for example, you have to move away from your home for work or something like that, what do you do? How do you cope up with the change?

There was a time when I didn't like a change. But now I welcome it. I have realized it that change is certain

For now , I can move away from home and go to my aunt or go to the room in the other house where I celebrated Christmas and New Year last 2024. I'm thinking of moving away from home and I don't know when but I'm prepared for that for the emergency. I want to copy notes about my studies online in my notebook. I'm looking forward to do volunteer face to face and meet up my org mates in church and in other NGOs.

When I moved out of the family home, I only moved about 5 miles/about 8 km and had my own car. Whenever I felt like it, I just went "home" and visited with mom or she came to my apartment and visited there.
Honestly, nothing changed very much for me at that time.
I'm sure you'll do fine on your own and you can always call your parents if you need something.
Remember, if you get lonely, you can always come to myLot and talk with us here.

@Dreamerby Remember, you aren't alone as long as you have your phone or laptop... I'm almost always here when you are.

When I moved away from home I was ecstatic. It was a big change; but I loved it so it wasn't much of a challenge mentally.

Take it in your stride.
You will soon get used to a new job and place to live and settle into a new routine
Positive mental attitude my friend,

That happens to all of us but one needs to take things in one's stride.
