Oh The Places You Will Go … The Daily Doost

Oh the places you will go <3 It’s one of my favorite Dr. Seuss books. One of those I can recite in my head and think of at the most bizarre moments, moments like today as I’m running on concrete jungles surrounded by so much background noise.

Oh the places you will go … as I’m running on the streets of New York, I end up by the water. This is where my soul feels most comfortable. It’s ironic because the ocean is so mysterious and I’m not one whose contempt with not knowing, but patience has taught me to let things be. So maybe that’s what I’m doing, letting things be and finding the comfort in it.

And as I’m admiring the tides in a crowd full of tourists and locals I find myself thinking these words “Oh the places you will go.” Soon I become more aware of my surroundings only to realize I managed to find a gap at the ledge standing next to someone meditating. How did I end up here?

I decided to stay, let his calm ora absorb me. I’m glad I did, because in a world full of chaos, it’s truly a blessing to stand still for a moment and appreciate where you’ve been, where you’re at, and where you’re heading.
