233. How I Knew I Was Home {with Sam}

This is the episode where I tell you how I felt driving into. My home Bennington, Vermont. And what happened from there. Thanks a lot for sticking around. I appreciate you with all my heart and soul. And here we are. I have a thought. As you were talking, I thought, Home is a feeling. But then. It's more of a knowing. It's like, yeah, it's a feeling, but it's, it's deeper than that. It's a knowing. Right. I knew this place. You knew this was home. Why. I think. And I can't really speak for you. I don't know how you're feeling within yourself right now. But I'll always say when we're home in ourself, home farms around us. When we don't have to try, it's just going to come. Naturally. Not necessarily easily. That kind of fits to What does that home is where you hang your hat. I mean maybe, but home. Is you. When you're being authentic. Going back to our previous conversations. When I'm just. Completely authentic in myself, fully integrated all the light, all the dark, all or whatever. And I am just feeling like wherever I am. I am whole and I'm home. Things happen. That's how it happened for me too. When I moved here. I don't know how many times I heard it's hard to find a place to live in Bennington. It took me one, try one. Right. and then I got a job that I got a promotion before I started. Right. That makes sense. Right, because, because I was hoping no, no. Not at all. You were. Tending you were accepting. And through those things, that's how we find our own self completion. Anyway. And I chose to move here. I chose to move to Bennington. After swinging through it three times over the course of the year and a half that I was on my. Journey on my. Travels visiting friends. When I drove into town the first time. This is the real sense that I had. And I told Jared, this, my friend that I was visiting here, you've heard from him as well. I said. When I was driving into Bennington, I had the same feeling I used to get when I was a little kid. And our family went on a trip. When we came back, when we drove back into the town. I knew I was. Home. I knew I was where I lived. That is so close to the feeling I had when I drove into Bennington. It was very interesting. So I had to come back. And then I wanted to come back. And then I said, I don't want to travel anymore. I want to go home. So I did. And everything has unfolded more beautifully than I ever could have expected since I have learned to expect the unexpected and Bennington. And to expect. The best. May you expect the best wherever you are. Now, when you come home to yourself, May you tend your garden and accept where you are now. Be home and let home form around you. You do not have to work so hard at this. I promise. Come home. Thank you so much for being here. We are going to continue this conversation about. how to lay fear aside, how to really be. At more ease in life. And I don't know anyone who doesn't need a little bit of that. Until then we're sending all the love. And then somewhere. We'll talk tomorrow
