73. Find the Place You Love. Then Move There 📦
WELCOME NEW FRIENDS! It’s so good to have you here. 💛
Bonjour mon amis,
I hope this Sunday finds you following the simple & sage advice of the wonderful Julia Cameron [The Artist’s Way] —
“When we do what we are meant to do … doors open for us, we feel useful, and the work we do feels like play.”
Here’s five more things you may find interesting and/or meaningful.
1. Reading ☘️
This little gift from a special friend in Paris via my favourite bookstore in the whole entire world.
2. A Poem ❤️🔥

how the people who
never liked me never
liked me because they
always assumed I was
having too much fun.
and you know what?
i was.
i loved being alive.
3. Pondering 💭
The life-changing magic of a bullshit job.
4. Reading 📦
What moving house can do for your happiness.
“As the economy changes, and quarantine has revealed that many jobs can be performed remotely, you might find yourself with more geographic flexibility than you have had in a long time. If you’re uncomfortable with the status quo, this time when life has been paused might be just the impetus you need to make you consider a change of place. This year could be the chance for you to move to the place where your heart resides.
There is a word for love of a place: topophilia, popularized by the geographer Yi-Fu Tuan in 1974 as all of “the human being’s affective ties with the material environment.” In other words, it is the warm feelings you get from a place. It is a vivid, emotional, and personal experience, and it leads to unexplainable affections.”
