Everyone who knows me knows how I feel about Oregon.
13 years ago today, I moved from Wisconsin to accept a job in Portland, Oregon. A coworker asked if I made the right decision, and I thought it for a minute, and this came to me: "I think it was, only because when I lived in Wisconsin I couldn't get away from the icy, frigid temperatures fast enough. Having lived here, I now appreciate Wisconsin. Wisconsin is more than it's subzero temperatures. Wisconsin is family, and I miss them more than anything. So i'm glad I moved, because if I hadn't, I might have been in Wisconsin all this time, focusing more on the climate than my family."
And it occurred to me, that no, I don't regret the move at all. I'm glad I moved.
