Where it’s at isn’t necessarily about where you are. It’s the way you’re present or absent in your intimate contact with and vulnerability to experience. Presence is usually too richly intimate with now/here to catalyze travel (which is, in a sense, an experience of ongoing fluid absence from place). Absence is often too concerned with remaining in motion to permit or catalyze stillness. Of course, neither of these models is true, or correct. They are like shadows made of concepts. Presence and absence intervene in each other’s nature and arousals.
