To CHINA!!!!
Donalds' Parents' are planning to move back after retirement. They decided they don't want to retire here in America completely away from 99% if their family. We were talking about it and decided that we want to move there as well. As a family we don't really like staying here in America, i'm sick of all this political mumbo jumbo and how 'we' , that is Americans think that we are better than the rest of the world. When, in fact we are not. Nobody, nor Any Country is the best. I think it just has to correlate with your own belief system and family system.
I know this might come as a shock to a lot of you, but to us it just makes sense. Yes, i will be leaving all of My Friends and Family behind, but it seems like i correspond with everybody via Internet and Phone anyways, and they have Phones and Internet in China/Hong Kong. Hell most of our Electronics came from there anyways. Not like that really matters or anything.
We just think that it is time for a change. Yes i would have to learn a new language, but i've been in the process of learning Cantonese the past few years anyways though. Plus once you are living in the society and actually wanting to learn the language it will grow on you and become second nature. Yes it would far away from My friend and family and close to about 99% of Donalds family, but why should my family be the only ones around? Not like they really are for the most part anyways.....
I am relishing in the idea of living in Asia!!! I can hardly wait! I've been wanting to go back there for years to meet Donalds family, but just to visit in general; i've always wanted to go! It would be great for the kids to actually get to know Donalds side of the family IRL versus just talking to them on the phone every now and then. We could always save up money to come and visit Friends and Family here in America, it would most likely be a every couple of years type thing, but it's not like we have picked up and moved to Pluto!
I know this may sound a bit absurd and insane to you....but to us it actually feels, well....it feels right.
Oh yeah, it's not like we're leaving this summer or anything like that. It will most likely take us a couple of years to save up enough money to pick up and move everything to China or Hong Kong (whichever we move to); to find a home; work and school. I am Eager to Seize the Day (Carpe Diem) and just go with the flow and try new things! I feel this is going to be the right move for our little family.....it's just a matter of when it will take place. Perhaps not next year....perhaps not in 5. But it is a plan none the less.
So.....Goodbye America, Hello Asia.....well, maybe not for a few more years; but it's something we will be saying in the future!
