I’m going to generalize and really demonstrate my ignorance here, but for the most part, I think theres two types of people–
- Those who Care too much &
- Care too little.
I spent this last weekend in Malibu and couldn’t help but admire the latter. I know, appearances aren’t always what they seem and just because people are on the beach surfing and smiling, doesn’t mean they don’t care.
But they damn sure aren’t worried about economy this, world-ending that, pandemic, death, jobs, politics, and taxes….
and that’s what I’m after.
I want to have a good time while I’m here. And this should get you thinking. In 2020, we were all made painfully aware of the fragility of our lives, at any moment, we could lose it all.
Rather than taking this for what’s worth- we blamed others, got paranoid, and maxed out our amazon shopping carts.
For someone who never believed in fate or destiny, I’m starting to see there is some underlying order to things that we really have no control over. That said, here’s the universal order, the answer to the ultimate question and the meaning of life itself:
You’ll get it, when you get it.

When did you all sign up to serve? And what the hell are you serving anyway?
Everyone talks about duty- “I have to do this, pay bills, fix this, and I can’t have fun or do those things because…. duty, duty, duty”
But then when? When will you live?
I did this too. As a kid, I was ultra serious, refused to have too much fun, because I had a calling to serve. Which, not so surprisingly, I didn’t find. So my attitude, rather than preserve success or build me wealth, led to a miserable life.
The journey is guaranteed, but whatever you’re after isn’t. With that in mind, my priorities are completely reversed.
Happiness and fun come first. Health comes first. Play comes first. Duty….. meh.
