My life as simba

I am a Disney FANATIC!! I was born into the obsession, my family has fed me Disney movies and Mickey popsicles my whole life. I just got accepted into the Disney internship program in Orlando and I'm super jazzed. As of August I will be leaving, alone, AGAIN. Don't get me wrong, I'm stoked but more and more I realize what Rafiki was talking about when he sang 'the circle of life'. This is my life's circle, start something new, get used to it, struggle to get comfortable, love it then leave it. It could be a job, an apartment, a city, a church, a relationship, whatever. I'm at the leaving part right now. You'd think I'd be an expert at it since I've had to do it so many times. I try thinking about all the amazing times ahead and and the crazy new experiences but every time I get settled, I get the notion that this is as good as it gets. Now, I am someone who thrives on change. In the heat of a moment I will drop almost anything in order to have a new experience, never remembering the repercussions from the last. Whats amazing are the friendships and experiences I am blessed with in each move, leaving those are no fun. Nevertheless, I'm packing again. I've decided that the only thing I need in this crazy Imovesomewherenewevery6months mode is a constant. Someone once told me "the only thing that is consistent is inconsistency" and I couldn't agree more. But I can't help wishing I had a Penny. For those that watch the tv phenomenon Lost, you know what I mean. Desmond, Penny's Irish lover, is time travelling. The only thing that can get him back to where he's supposed to be is Penny. She has been constant through his life. I then realized, I DO! Sure, I'm a cheeseball, but Gods my constant. He's been there through all of my moves, whether I wanted Him or not. And He will be there in my next twelve moves at least. Sure he's not a short, hairy Irishman, and I'm not a time traveller, but at least I've got a constant.
