Default Stalled Clarity

Hello Everyone. This is my first post so I hope this is the right forum.

For the last two years I had planned to move to Colorado and open a bookstore. Colorado wasn't my first choice of places to move to but my entire family agreed that's where we'd move. I'm suppose to move in July.

Last year, I went to Colorado and found the most perfect spot to open my store. Aside from the fact that Colorado is absolutely beautiful, I felt a real sense of home there. Everything in me told me to sign the paperwork and leave a check. But instead of acting on that very strong, loud feeling, I allowed all the reasons why I wasn't ready to invade and take over my feelings.

When i got home, I immediately began to feel a loss which transformed into an emptiness that I have still not been able to shake. Now the problem is that while I still think about opening my bookstore, Colorado no longer seems like the place for me. Basically, I feel stalled. I don't know what I want to do or where I want to go. I've given notice at my current job, which is good because at least I know I don't want to stay there anymore.

So my question is, how can I get some clarity back as to what my next step should be? A year of wondering is long enough. Thanks for you thoughts.
