I am ready to jump off the hamster wheel and explore the world I have been staring at beyond the self imposed bonds of routine and security of a regular paycheck. I am imagining and exploring just a little, I enjoyed reading and connecting with this piece; you are not alone. Thanks @aprivatechef for recommending Natalie's post. I have subscribed!
Most people I know have these "what if" thoughts from time to time. But take this from someone more than twice your age: You are younger than you know. You have years and adventures ahead of you. Those coffeeshop dreams may become reality someday. Life will surprise you. It's like the marvelous poem, Ithaka:
This post resonated with me the most. It has left me reflecting on the idea of 'what if'. It's disheartening to contemplate the untapped potential and unexplored interests that linger in your mind. I believe that it is our greatest responsibility in life to delve into our deepest passions, whether it's photography, running a community-focused coffee shop, or pursuing a career in psychology. These 'what if's' may just be your destiny. While it may seem like a different reality, it could very well be your current path. I know you are talented. Don't forget it. Be a dreamer.

"Keep Ithaka always in your mind.
Arriving there is what you’re destined for.
But don’t hurry the journey at all.
Better if it lasts for years,
so you’re old by the time you reach the island,
wealthy with all you’ve gained on the way."
