Possibilities in NYC

Do you know what I love about life? That anything is possible! And no city captures the spirit of possibility like New York City!
Lately, I've been pondering what life in the Big Apple would be like. You see, I'm the type of girl who can't stay in one place for too long...
My curiosity for new people and places is much too big. My appetite for life is insatiable. My desire to be stretched and challenged is never ending. And my love for exploration is inescapable.
But perhaps what I love even more than the thought of NYC is the freedom that comes with knowing the sky's the limit when we begin to dream...

I feel that exact way about NYC! Every time I'm there I feel like I could conquer the world if I wanted.

Well said! NYC definitely has the feeling of infinite possibilities and excitment. I haven't been in since summer 2008 and I'm dying for another hit!

Amy said...

I agree with your other readers - I love your optimism and spirit! I recently moved to a big city as well - your West Coast counterpart and am constant awe of the life and vibrancy of the people here. The energy is very contagious.

Thanks for sharing the thoughts and beautiful pictures with us!

Crystal, you are such an inspiration. Your drive and excitement is something that we could all benefit from. Hugs to you, girl.

Alyssa / A Muse A Day said...

Wow, you perfectly expressed something I feel all the time, especially while traveling. Keep stretching and challenging yourself, girl!

Unknown said...

Crystal, I could not agree with you more! Even people-watching on the subway is a constant source of inspiration. We would welcome you with open arms :)

Johanna said...

Couldn't agree more. Love this post - totally captures the essence of NYC!

all of my thoughts exactly! stretch, try, allow yourself to get lost, embrace surprises, be open to new people and experiences.
my life phrase is "leap and the net will appear"
but it sounds like your journey is bristling with excitement and many new facets.
congrats!

I'm totally biased since I live here and simply adore it, but I think you could take NYC by storm!
