Been doing a lot of thinking about how conflicted seem to be my desires/directions at this point in my life...

On the one hand, I relish the idea of community, of engaging in on-going projects and building up long-term relationships with people I can keep in my life and watch grow (and vice versa).

On the other hand, I am conducting an almost exclusively international job search which, if successful, will land me in another country where I'll have to start from scratch and will be unlikely to stay forever. And I'm pretty sure this is what I want for now.

I wish there were a way to combine the two...
