Find the Good in this Very Moment

  • Summary

  • Travel can be restorative, fun, and, in my opinion, it’s the greatest form of diplomacy there is. Because we get to know people as individuals rather than stereotypes. We develop deeper connections as true citizens of the world. We experience life.


    Yet travel and trading countries is not a magic pill for happiness. There is no perfect place, and wherever we go, we take our problems with us.


    I’m reading David Fideler’s excellent book Breakfast with Seneca, where he quotes Seneca in one of his letters:


    “If you want to escape your troubles, you don't need to be somewhere else: you need to be someone else.”


    Those searching for meaning or purpose in life might think a new place will provide answers. But a new location, a new job, a new partner doesn’t guarantee a better life or a fresh start.


    Finding purpose involves understanding your values, interests, and goals. It’s internal work that can be done anywhere.
