Changes?

I'm sad to say, my blog posts have seriously decreased over the past 6 months. I think one of the main reasons is that there's not really anything new going on in my life. I mean, plenty of things are happening: just this month, I went on 2 ski trips, read some great books, and spent a remarkably exhausting night at the Newark airport. Yet I didn't feel like blogging about any of those things.

In Richmond, I've settled into my job and have begun to enjoy it even more. At first, it was really stressful and overwhelming (like any first full-time job, I'm sure), then I began to have days that were somewhat enjoyable, and now I like it and look forward to seeing my co-workers and patients. I'm comfortable with my job. I still have stressful moments, but overall I feel prepared and able to accomplish what I need to do each day.

Yet I wonder if that's the problem? Have I became too complacent? Am I being challenged enough? Am I learning enough? It's hard to ask myself these questions because I feel like I just got to a place where I wasn't struggling every day. Now that I'm comfortable with my job, why would I want to change it to something that might be challenging again? I think back to how hard the first month was, and I don't want to experience that again.

At the same time, I have a desire to move on to bigger and better things. To try something new. To learn something else. To gain some other experiences. These thoughts are terrifying and exciting. I know that I probably won't have the same job forever, so why not look at some opportunities now, while I have the chance to go anywhere?

I don't know what I'm going to do next, but I'm fairly certain that I'm not at my final destination. I'm craving a new adventure.
