“Wherever you go, there you are.”
— Jon Kabat Zinn
Simplified Meaning:
You can't escape yourself, no matter where you go. Imagine moving to a new city because you think it will make you happier. If you were unhappy in the old city because of certain problems, you might find those same problems follow you. This is because the way you feel inside isn't just tied to where you are; it's also about what's going on in your mind. For example, if you're always worrying or feeling sad, those feelings will come with you to the new city too. Instead of just changing your surroundings, it's important to work on understanding and improving your inner thoughts and feelings. This way, you can truly feel better, no matter where you are.
