Yourself And The Place That You Live
Earlier this morning, I read a very interesting article about how “where” you live can influence a tremendous amount of both physical and physiological states of being. I can attest to this as that is how I have felt for quite a long time now. And, later this year, I will be moving to my “spiritual home” of the UK. What do I mean by “spiritual home?” I think for me it’s just this inherent sense of a deeply held desire to be somewhere that feels like “home” to me. It’s a place where I feel that I should have always been.
And so, in a way, making this upcoming move feels like making something feel “right” in my universe. In thinking about this, I have realized that, for quite some time, if not perhaps most of my life, I have often felt “out of place” here in the US, for many different reasons. There’s no one single thing, rather, it’s just a feeling that I’ve had for most of my life, really.
It IS interesting to ponder how I will “feel” once I am finally at last, ensconced there and making a home and a new life for myself…what will it be like? Does moving somewhere, in and of itself, equally correlate with happiness? Maybe. Maybe not. I guess I shall be finding out later this year.
Sometimes, just like with a new haircut/hairstyle, we need a change.
We need to refresh. Reboot. Reimagine our lives, for the better.
I love this song. It perfectly captures how I am feeling.
