Busy with Fun and Not Fun Stuff — W Lance Hunt

Carpe Diem, Motherf#ckers! What some seriously smart people can teach us about LIVING IN THE MOMENT

508

Russ Josephs

You're preaching Mindfulness.

You're preaching Mindfulness. There is only the moment. This, then the next, then the next. And to live in the past or think of the future make us miss the only thing we actually have. Now.

Too Early in the Morning for an Epiphany — W Lance Hunt

I’ve a little tale to recount. A true one. From a couple of months back. Starts early one Saturday morning in the kitchen. In the quiet before the rest of the house wakes. Me making coffee. Eyes still a tad crusty. Hardly the time for an epiphany. An even worse…

Another European War against a Deluded Dictator — W Lance Hunt

I had a essay ready to go, a lighthearted look at paying attention to what you’re doing and the right vs. my way of getting things done. And then Russia invaded Ukraine. Suddenly, the world was different. So too will this issue of the newsletter be. Friends and Family I have neither family…
