A Bronx Tale

A Bronx Tale is one of my favorite movies, have you guys seen it? I think it has some great lessons, I should probably go see the Broadway show now. We took these photos in the Bronx after a sushi date. I usually like to
shoot in Manhattan, but  thought why not explore my borough a bit more. I've been living in the Bronx now for two years and it's been really good I must say. I love that my family is only a 25 minutes drive away and my commute is so much better compare to when I lived in Brooklyn. Although the trains are not that great on the weekend, and  do feel like I need a car in the Bronx. The main reason I wanted to move to the city was not to let go of driving, but I realized how comfortable and convenient it is to have a car. I am considering getting a new car and forgo moving to Harlem. I've been wanting to move to Harlem for sometimes now because I was focusing on the cons of living in the Bronx instead of the pros. I have this shift suddenly where I thought maybe I have not given the Bronx a good enough chance. 

My rent is pretty decent so I thought instead of getting a smaller place for more money, why not stay where I am and save that money to buy a house of my own. I never thought I'd want to own a house because I've always identified myself as a free spirit, spontaneous who wants the option to just get up and move somewhere. I considered myself a nomad for sometimes, always wondered why live in one place when I can in many others. I didn't want any attachment to anything, maybe that has to do with some limiting beliefs I had. I've concluded that I want to set root somewhere whilst having the option to travel the world as I please or Maybe it's because I am getting older & changed my mind. I also thought, instead of paying someone else's house for 10-20 years, why not my own. After paying rent now  for 4 years now, I wish it was on my own place, but my mindset is not the same as it used to be. So My plan to is to buy my house & redo it the way I want. I've already  have folders of inspos in my phone for my closet, office, etc... 

What do you guys think? Renting forever or buying your own place?
