Itchy Feet

I have been getting the urge to go travelling for a few months now and I just feel like I need to get away. I have become really jealous of a couple of my mates – Fi, who’s gone to China, and Kathy, who’s going round the world - as they can just quit everything and go travelling for, in Kathy’s case, several months. At the moment I can’t really, because I will be at college until June, and then hopefully doing my NQT (newly qualified teacher) year from September. After that, hopefully I will be staying at the school for a few years. Therefore, the first real opportunity to go travelling is in about 5/6 years time. I was talking to James about this the other day, and he said something, which I hadn’t really thought about. He said that he would rather be in my position, with training for a career, which I am loving at the moment, and a focus and a direction in life. It got me thinking, why do we never see the good things that we have? Why do we always “want that one”?
