There are essentially two types of travelers in this world. There are those who are consumed by ticking boxes and traveling to all the major attractions just to say that theyve been there and done that. Then there are those who truly travel for the experience of traveling and who soak up everything along the way. The real purpose of traveling is not to reach a destination, but to travel.
This is also true in the journey of life. So many people go through life reaching for destinations and they end up never traveling. Wherever your mind is, that is where you are. See, your whole life is actually lived within the confines of your mind. It is not what happens to you, but how you process it in your mind. Wherever you put your focus is where your attention will be. So often we fall into the trap of the someday-somewhere mentality, where we think that someday when we are somewhere else or with someone else or with something else we will be happy. Then we will do x, y and z. We almost live in this other place that we aspire to and we end up forgetting where we are right now – which is all weve really got anyway.
Life is lived in the now. Now is all you will ever...
