I think it takes a lot of courage to move from a place you have lived all of your life to a new one. It is very difficult to get rid of possessions you have loved and enjoyed or just got used to. It is hard work also and stressful to sell a house and leave familiar surroundings and favorite places. It is a lot like being a pioneer. AND it is listed as a stressor in some lists psychiatrists have made.
Most of us land beautifully and find many similar traits in those around us and quickly assimilate into NOT going to work and learning new skills and enjoying not having to meet deadlines...here in this beautiful place, planned for grown up people. Good luck and
Welcome HOME.
