who cares if you're living or not?! the real question is ARE YOU DWELLING?!??!

 Me. I am dwelling. I am a dweller. One who lives by being in a place. Where I dwell.

The definition of dwell is to "live in or at a specific place." 

It comes from the Old English dwellan meaning 'lead astray, hinder, or delay' and in Middle English meant 'tarry or remain in place.'

You get the sense that it's a place where you lingered on your way to something else.

And is that not life?! Is it not?! A place you ended up for a time on your way to something else? Dwelling.

I am going all in on dwelling in 2026 and maybe for the rest of my life.

This blog is now a dwell blog. Where I will expound upon the differences between living and dwelling. 

Living? Ephemeral. Fleeting. Chasing around one illusion after another. Like if you've ever been out on flat water and seen up ahead some shimmering shiny water and then when you get there and look down it's the exact same water where you were before but now the shimmering shine has moved further up ahead. That's living.

Me? I'm dwelling. I'm staying in the spot of water I found and when I wait for a moment the fish come out of hiding and a whole underwater world is revealed to me because I took the time to remain still in one place for a while. That's dwelling baby. 

You're just gonna chase the shine your whole life? A fool's errand. A Seward's folly!

I'm dwelling. There's only one place. Right here. There's only one time. Right now.
