Walking away from a dream.... - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

currently, i'm at the radio station for my last night on-air. i've decided that i've lived the dream for long enough and it's time to move on. it's bittersweet, but feels really cool that i could achieve something i set out to do. i broke into a top 5 market without having any radio experience, that doesn't happen often. anyways, i was just wondering if anybody else ever lived a dream and then actually walked away from it? some of my friends think i'm nuts for doing this, but it just seems right.

by the way, the last song that i'm going to play will be "fallen angel" by poison....my favorite song ever!

Hmmm... Funny enough I did just that at one point. I walked away from my ex-wife and that's a decision I've regretted ever since.

What is the reason for you leaving?

Just wanting to try something new?

Good luck to you. I see nothing wrong with it if you can do it. What good is living the same dream? Go out and live another.

If it's something that you feel is right. Do it. You've started this chapter in your novel and you have to end it sometime.

Congratulations on achieving your dream.

Well if you never quit something, you never have something to regret for the rest of your life.

I hope this isn't your regret in a few years, As long as you know this is what you want you'll be fine.
