Not So Happy Today

I spoke to my friend in Minnesota tonight. He informed me that he plans to move to San Francisco probably sometime next week. I have been to San Fran before. Spent two months there on an intership. I enjoyed every minute of it. There are plenty of job opportunities. More of a faster pace than the south. Besides why shouldn't he go. It doesn't make sense to wait around on a city that will take months if not years to rebuild. He also said that he had to go because he didn't want to live with "what if." I certainly couldn't ask him not to go. I didn't ask him not to go to Minnesota because I figured he had to do what he thought was best for him. In addition to that, I certainly couldn't tell him how I feel. I am sure Minnesota is not as intriguing as San Fran. He could easily fall in love with the city because it has so much personality. He asked my opinion of the city and I gave him all of the highlights. I even expressed how much I loved it and would like to go back. But I don't think I will be making the gesture to fly to San Fran. I think if it has to stop, then I shouldn't chase it. And perhaps that is what I have been doing all along. Chasing a dream.
