Lazy River Fun
Yesterday we took the opportunity to float down a lazy river with mild, intermittent rapids. It was calm, gorgeous, fun, cooling (in 36C heat) and hugely enjoyable.
Sometimes taking an hour or two to float through life is a wonderful thing.
We met a man standing waist deep in water just before a set of light rapids. He had a beverage in his hand and a friendly demeanour but tough looks.
As I was being pulled straight toward him by the flow of the river I said I didn’t know which side of him I’d end up on. He said not to worry and that the river would decide. Very zen.
Don’t fight the current. Go with the flow.
Lazy river fun and philosophy.

Do Something You Love
Hiking, spa, massage and spending time with my wife. I did all of those combined today and it was brilliant.
Find things you love and go do them!

Ageing
What to do and what not to do. Some people accept ageing as a part of the life process while others don’t. Some people may even be happier as they age because they are living longer than some of their less fortunate friends. If they appreciate what they have rather than what they are losing, they will struggle less with the eventualities of life.
Your body and mind may not be what they were, and some decline is inevitable, but you can appreciate what you still have.
Staring mortality in the face is not an easy task. And it would seem natural to be angry, frustrated, upset, disillusioned and startled. It is hard to tell how you will respond to the situation when the endgame becomes obvious.
However, hold your chin up, enjoy what you’ve experienced and role model wisdom and appreciation rather than fear and panic. 10 billion people have gone before you and had to deal with the end one way or another. Take some time now to consider your viewpoints and make some plans. This will make the acceptance easier when the final curtain becomes inevitable.

Your Future Self
Live so your future self will thank you. Your future self in 10 minutes and 10 years should want to thank you for thinking of them.
Get your finances in great shape and your one-and-only body too. Keep your mind sharp and maintain great relationships.
Do things now for your future self’s pleasure and appreciation. Make the sacrifice and commitment now so the future you is delighted.

Patience Can Be Rewarding
Whether watching the Perseids meteor shower or the lions on the Serengeti, I’ve found being patient can be the most useful trait in getting to see rare events. Be patient.
