• The really important thing isn’t where you live exactly, but being embodied in your living regardless of where you are.

• I cannot tell you where to live because—aside from only living in one place myself—I do not know what you value. But it is worthwhile to think of your ideal life, what you want and when, and work backwards from there, and thinking of it often. Man is a forgetful creature, just as we become estranged from our former selves we quickly become estranged from our own goals and dreams unless we continuously try to remember them. (Thus it is possible that a person who “wants kids some day” might sleepwalk through a few decades and suddenly find their wants difficult, find themselves pressed for time, etc.)
