035: To Be, Or Not to Be...

Hola Amigos,

Hope your summers are going beautifully. These last few weeks, as I've been diving inwards the topic of fleeing ourselves came up for me after a reflection from Stoic philosopher, Seneca. It was so hard for me to just Be, with myself. There was so many "should's." I should be traveling in Europe, I should be connecting to relevant people and places, i should be having meditating and excercising a ton if I'm not doing the above.... Of course, it’s lovely to travel and see incredible places, even for a long weekend, but Seneca tells us to be careful. We hop from place to place, destination to destination, constantly excited for the next one. This was a potent reminder for me, and something I found occurring in my present moment.
