Where Is

Where.
Location. Location. Location. "Where" is it happening.  In storytelling we establish the setting, it could be the main point of the story.  Eight inches of snow in Alaska is not a big story, but it is in Santa Clarita. 

This morning the first headline I read was Katie Couric leaving her anchor post where she "solely manned the helm" of the CBS Evening News for five years.  It becomes apparent that "where" is making headlines, even for those who have "arrived"...and in her case, not only arrived but "reached the top."

"Where is.... we all want to fill in the blank.

I remember Nemo. He faced many challenges from every direction since the day he was born...and he just wanted to get to "where" his Dad was, where he knew he belonged.  I can only chuckle as I'm reminded of that famous Star(fish) in the story who said, "Find a happy place, find a happy place, FIND A HAPPY PLACE."
