thrive in place.

sweet auburn – 10 jan 2016

I think this has to be the title of my next (aka first) book. Maybe I should claim the URL if it hasn’t been already. Alas, looks like ThriveInPlace.com has been claimed already.

But “Thrive in Place” (derived from Shelter In Place), has been my mantra for years now. I don’t love Atlanta. I never have. But it is where we live, and I’ve worked to make the best of it. And I no longer feel as though I’m working to simply Survive. I’m now on the path to Thrive. Even if this isn’t my ideal place to live.

The question becomes then, where would I rather live? And why? And what can I bring of that place to this one?

At the very least, I need to find time to get out. And today, at last, we did. Lunch at Sweet Auburn, then a stop at MODA (Museum of Design Atlanta). It’s a good start. But only if I can find the time! How can I find the time??
