Traveling Light

I’ve been missing New York City a lot lately. Yesterday I started looking at pictures from my move back to Missouri, and when I did, I realized there were things I had intended to blog (about my move) that I wasn’t able to at the time for logistical reasons.

Case in point: My last trip to Dunkin’ Donuts…

One of the first stops my dad and I made for gas once we’d exited New York City was a gas station with a Dunkin’ Donuts inside. I ordered my last New York-style Dunkin’ Donuts bagel with a cup of Yogi Tea, instead of my usual coffee, since it was late at night. Yogi Tea always has a quote or insightful message on the paper tab that hangs out of the cup, and that night, my Yogi tea sent an eerily relevant message.

All of my belongings were packed into a single van (not a truck…a van), we were headed 1031 miles away for me to begin my new life in my hometown, and this is what my Yogi Tea had to say…
