Daily Zen

Wherever and whenever
The mind is found
Attached to anything,
Make haste to detach
Yourself from it.
When you tarry for
Any length of time
It will turn again into
Your old home town.

- Daito Kokushi (1282-1334)

I suppose it depends on how much you like your old hometown. Me, I'd rather be in New York City.
