I have, although I'm not sure guts gets the glory. It would have taken more guts to stay in one place. I don't regret doing all that I've done but something I've learned along the way is that people and things are more alike than different - no matter where you go or what you do.

I've had steady jobs where I worked for $17/day working twelve hour days - and others where I earned over $100/hour. I was grateful for both at one time and sick to death of both at another. It's the same with locations. I've lived in the desert and marveled at its beauty right up until I hated it's oppressive heat. Lived on the ocean and marveled at its beauty right up until I would have lived anywhere else to get away from the tourists.

We're happy where we are at, doing what we are doing - right up until we aren't. There's always something to love about our lives and always something to hate. People tend to take the good for granted in any situation.
