Writing this on the plane to Maryland.

Writing this on a phone.

Writing this as year 11 of prolific blogging is nearly completed. 

No one cares that 3,000 more blog posts than the posted world record 17,212 posts by a single author have been written on these five blogs.

No one cares about a Father over-focusing on a shared experience.

Most of us will not be consciously aware of the transformational change that a wakeup call potentially brings.

If we ever thought about preparing to die… getting all our affairs in order so we can do and say the things we feel are most important… any form of ulterior motive is mute.

None of those motives matter, because death is around the corner.

Who cares about material things, or titles, etc?

No one who is counting their days.

If we could live like that without a sense of eminent death, how glorious would that be?
