Two years ago, I decided I needed to move out of Orange County, CA. I knew I wanted to move back to the woods and mountains, far enough in to reconnect with nature, but not so far that society was unreachable when I wanted to reach it. I researched areas across the country and I kept coming back to Maine. I had never been there, and i had a lot of reasons Maine would not work for me. But every time I came up with a reason, some article would appear or someone would say something that dispelled my concern. I knew in my gut, and my soul, that Maine was my future home. I just needed time to accept it. I guess I'm saying trust yourself and your intuition. It knows what you should do.
P.S. I've lived in Maine for a year now and couldn't be happier. :)
