Re: How old are you?

Being born on an even decade, this should be a simple thing for me to calculate, and yet I often forget how old I am. Lets see, 1960 plus a few decades, it's 2017 but haven't had my birthday yet, carry the one... I am 56!

Re: 2016 Olympics in Rio

Re: What would you tell your younger self

I'd tell her to keep the wild wandering streak and to not fall into conformity, walk away from her career path and just travel, surf, meditate, explore.

Re: Parents beat and disown 19-year-old for being gay

Makes me sad that nothing has changed in the 36 years since I came out. There's a lot more window dressing in the world, but heart to heart, person to person, we are still reviled by many.

Re: Why every small moment of mindfulness counts?

Love the analogies, thanks for sharing them! Many times if I don't have enough time to focus on mindfulness for 20-30 minutes I'll skip it, time to rethink that.

Re: A quick message to my DW facebook friends

I did the same thing recently, the amount of time I was wasting was becoming an issue for me. Much better, for me, to have let it go.
