I used to say that I don’t know where I’m gonna live, sort of looking for the perfect place to settle and live in for the rest of my life. I now see that it doesn’t necessarily work that way. If you know that home is within you, home can be wherever you are at the moment.
Let’s not depend on outer circumstances to fulfil us anymore. For some that might mean closing a cycle of staying stuck in one place, having been too afraid of moving forward if it isn’t insured to generate an impeccable life. For others it might mean ending the endless running from one place to another, always chasing the next big thing.
There is a middle ground between chasing and staying stuck, between living in the future and in the past. I want to do my best to live in the moment, to accept what is and to make deliberate changes in a direction that feels purposeful.
I still very much appreciate having an external place where I feel safe, relaxed and happy, but what’s more important is how I feel when I turn to my internal world. If you are at home with yourself the outer turmoil will not bother you as much anymore. The peaceful state inside of you will start showing up in the surroundings outside of you.
