The foolish seek happiness in the distance, the wise grows it under their feet.
- James Oppenheim
Wander and seek
Reach and yearn
Look the world over
but someday you will learn
That the place you will be happiest
is the place you can return
Theresa of Avila said
All things must come to the soul from its roots
from where it is planted
and that's poetiquejustis
"They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots
by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always
green.
It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear
fruit."
Jeremiah 17:8
