Destination

Here's something for your reflection -- especially for those who are convinced that the "geographical cure" will make everything better:

One's destination is never a place but rather a new way of looking at things.

~ Henry Miller

And you know that I'm going to say that the meditation process - both formal sitting and the application of the principles to everyday life - makes it possible for us to cultivate that new way of looking at things. It really does! And not just superficially or temporarily, either. If we continue meditating and learning to let go of ego grasping, our way of looking at things truly changes radically.

    Unless one lives in California that is, where the state budget is in the toilet and my job happens to be paid mostly with state funds!
