Base in London. But living everywhere whenever I could.

"Even if the thing you invested in itself doesn't hold much meaning to you any more (be it a person, a place, a profession, a certain lifestyle you abandoned), the things it gave, the feelings, the wisdom, the gains it gave you are still a huge part of you, and it doesn't seem like the energy has gone into a black hole. It stil feels like it has fueled your life, even the change in it. It's funny how your intention builds "something", but it doesn't just build a house, a relationship, an achievement... it builds the you that you will be in 5 years time, even if that you abandons the house, the career, the whatever you were building. This is the ultimate example of how the meaning is in the journey, not in the destination."
