Year of Living Shamelessly by Timothy Poulton

We live in the age of distraction. Yet one of life’s sharpest paradoxes is that your brightest future hinges on your ability to pay attention to the present.
When we’re at work, we fantasise about being on vacation; on vacation, we worry about the work piling up around us. We dwell on intrusive memories of the past or fret about what may or may not happen in the future. We don’t appreciate the living present because our monkey minds vault from thought to thought swinging from tree to tree.
Most of us don’t undertake our thoughts in awareness. Rather, our thoughts control us. Ordinary thoughts course through our mind like a deafening waterfall.
My new years resolution is to learn how to live in the moment and cherish those around me. What’s your new year’s resolution? If I was, to sum up, my year in one post, it would be that moment scrambling up the mountain in Rio Serrano Chile Patagonia at sunrise to sit alone with the Condors floating on the thermals in searching of the morning’s prey.

Sleep has his Home by Daniel Vorkauf

I have learned that if you must leave a place that you have lived in and loved and where all your yesteryears are buried deep, leave it any way except a slow way, leave it the fastest way you can. Never turn back and never believe that an hour you remember is a better hour because it is dead. Passed years seem safe ones, vanquished ones, while the future lives in a cloud, formidable from a distance. (Beryl Markham)
