The Excitement of Moving Home

Whilst there is something to be said about living in the same house most of one’s life, it is the case for a lot of people that moving home is inevitable.A� Perhaps during our late teens or early twenties we begin to seek out a life for our own, whether than means going to college or University, or seeking our own home away from our parents.A� As we get older and accumulate more artifacts, baggage and family members, moving home becomes more difficult and stressful.A� Moving home is in fact noted to be within the top three most stressful times of a person’s life.

Having said that, people can sometimes focus too much on the stressful side of things.A� It’s fun to begin looking at new apartments, picturing yourself living a new life in new surroundings.A� As you walk around your potential new abode, you visualize how you would re-decorate the place to put your own mark on it.A� You picture yourself watching the big TV you will purchase, or look out the window to imagine your children playing in the large garden.

It’s great to go looking at lots of potential places to move to.A� You feel like a millionaire, checking out all of these fancy new locations with a view to purchase or rent them.A� You can get a feeling that there is a new chapter in your life opening, with all of the trials and tribulations that make life worth living.

The act of moving into a new apartment or house is one of great excitement.A� It can commonly be because of a new job, and you might find yourself in a new city, miles away from your previous support structures.A� The new house feels big and empty, and you have but boxes to show for your past achievements.A�A� Most of the time we move house for positive reasons, and the time is one that is stressful, yes, but exciting.A� Moving into the first home that you own can give one a great sense of pride, that you’ve worked so hard to achieve something so substantial.

So, don’t look upon moving house as a chore or indeed, a nightmare.A� It takes a lot of planning and patience, there will be some upsets and some joys, but ultimately you are moving forward in your life to new and exciting things, and the next step is just beginning.
