No matter where you go, there you are...

Tonight I had the pleasure of dinner with my parents. My parents live about 15 minutes from me. I'm sad to admit that even with that luxury I don't get down there to see them except maybe once a month. To get there I even have to schedule it in my Outlook calendar. As I was leaving my mom had to write on her calendar all the cities I will be and when. Now you see if I go 48 hours without saying "hello" my mom will break out into hives. You see, my parents still live in the house I grew up in; they still eat in the same dining room. (They will be quick to say.. they did just get new couches.) In the present moment of that dinner I was reminded as the world goes faster and faster, don't forget - Wherever you go, there you are. Enjoy the moment. Some say honor your roots... I say love your launching pad. I dreamed my first dreams in that house and still go there for love, and encouragement today.
