I like this.




New Season...

New Blog design...

New Rachel??... (again!??)





Last night I went to my first Broadway show- Pippin. Walking out of the theatre I was completely mind blown. Putting aside the amazing talented singers, dancers, actors (all twirled into one) and body twisting, fire throwing, triple flipping amazingness- I think.... I might be Pippin?! I know I'm not a boy and last time I checked I'm no Prince but as I sat there in the audience I could have been Pippin singing on stage (if I could sing).  Pippin is on the quest of fulfilment... one thing leads to the next, which leads to the next and he truly believes he must live an extraordinary life because "there has to be more than this". Well I hear you Pippin! 




I am travelling into my 6 month of something more. 

As I walked home the other night I thought about my 6 months here, is it long? Is it short? Is this real?
It still feels like a dream. It doesn't feel that I actually packed my suitcase and boarded a plane away from all I knew. But it fits. Life in New York City fits so wonderfully. When I walk through the streets,  meet my friends, hail a taxi or look somewhere familiar to eat... it just fits.

Fall has begun. A brand new season with so much beauty. And I like this time. 




I still haven't figured everything out yet. I don't know when I will. But I know I'm closer and I am stumbling across some wonderful opportunities and some wonderful people.




So when you find you've steered off the track or perhaps you took a wrong turn, it's never too late to turn around and pick another path that looks even better or grab some bricks and lay your own. 

Why keep walking down the path with holes and dog poop when you can see a pretty one across the lake?

Jump in, swim across... and see what that other path is .


 As Pippin's Grandma would say....

"Less thinking, more living".
