On The Eve of My 52nd Birthday

I know I said I'll talk about Optimal Thinking in my last post, but I'm setting that aside for right now.


Wednesday will mark the 52nd year I've been here on Earth. I've been through a lot, having gone from good Lutheran altar boy, to revolutionary communist, to Buddhist, and now taking radical thinking one step beyond. Now believe me, I much enjoy being 52. It's a LOT better than when I was 22 or 32 or even 42. All that time I didn't really have the maturity to know what Life was all about. O sure, I thought I knew everything when I was younger, but really...come on.


My Goals to-day have more to do with creating a legacy, rather than accumulating things. I want to leave this world a better place than I found it. I want to make Life a little easier for those less fortunate. I want to have people say after I leave this mortal coil that my life had COUNTED for something.


So celebrate each year you're here. I have been so blessed for having gone through all that I have and have survived. I could've wound up in prison for some of the things I've done, but I wasn't. I did have to endure karmic retribution for what I've done. It was a miserable life for awhile, but I got through it. Now I am grateful for what I have to-day.


Anyway, I intend to enjoy my birthday. You should enjoy your life too.


To your Greater Success,
