I am a list-maker, not a rule-maker, so resolutions are not my thing. Instead, I will continue to focus on this list of guidelines for living my life.
- Zen Buddhism: “Be present in the moment.”
- The Golden Rule: “Hurt not others in ways that you yourself would find hurtful.”
- Occam’s Razor: ”All other things being equal, the simplest solution is the best.”
What are yours?

Hm. The rule I want to live by this year is: I can’t read or write between the lines and I neither speak nor understand subtext. If you have something to say to me, say it plainly, and I’ll do the same.
I. Be as steady as a rock and as fluid as the river.
II. Stop and think, then respond.
Always look on the bright side of life.
I am also pondering ‘consume less, create more’ at the moment.
My Feet firmly on the ground.
My Eyes on the path ahead.
My Mind on what might be behind the horizon.
First, do no harm.
Everyday is a gift,
Be grateful
assume nothing
