It does take guts. It takes guts and being a visionary. Life in itself is a great adventure.

Not because I'm necessarily running away or because I hate it here, but because you only live once, and why not be where you want to be?

However, that takes guts.

That rep i sent you suggesting you start a similar thread for positive discoveries after moving to Florida was in response to your feeling the topic needed both negative and positive viewpoints.
(Post 187) and as i assumed i had the negative side of things covered i thought the positives could be all yours.

I think this thread has run its course. I really hope we have all learned from this thread that just because one person sees Florida one way, doesn't mean the next person will see it the same exact way. We are all different people and like different things and that is ok. We need to value each other opinion and not attack them for a differing view.
