Wherever you go, there you are. I asked my kids tonight what they thought that meant. We were eating dinner at Outback Steakhouse. I suppose it contains many meanings, but tonight I was struck by the fact that we can't run away from our problems because our problems aren't outside of us, they are within. Whenever we want to run or leave a difficult situation behind, we are really running from our own inability to handle the situation. If we want to make progress, real progress in the area of self-improvement, it behooves us to figure out what it is inside we need to really work on. I can leave my job because I don't enjoy the culture, or I can look within and figure out what is really going on. What's really the problem is that I'm not feeling valued. Sure I'm being compensated well, but for a lady hungry for words of affirmation, working without them is difficult. So I can leave and sure enough when I arrive somewhere else where I don't feel appreciated...
