Being there, Getting there

You know those days when you just want to BE there?
Wherever there might be.
Today for instance, I was driving home – I really didn’t want to drive, I just wanted to be there and not spend time getting there.
Yes, yes, okay, that’s all very applicable to every aspect of life, and it even sounds a bit spiritual. But I’m serious.
It’s the driving or “doing” that is the point.
That’s the stuff of life.
You have to DO the thing in order to get there.
One can’t just simply BE there now.
Or can we?
Hmmmm.
This is all sort of becoming a great paradox.

This is when driving long distances alone, becomes a great self-evaluator.
