Another decade done...
Sitting enjoying the rain out my windows this New Year's Eve afternoon here in my office, catching up on the outer world stuff which had accumulated while I played serious hooky for my birthday this week. We went to Las Vegas for three nights, with total permission for sleeping late, room service, steam baths, exercising, massages, great restaurants, and being entertained (saw Cirque's KA and O, and walked away from the blackjack tables to the good!). Nice to step back and thank myself and the powers that be that I actually made it through sixty years here. Interesting and handy illusion to assume that one's 60th is any different than any other day in the universe, but what the heck - any excuse to wrap up the past, bring forward lots of positive experiences glazed with some sweet nostalgia, and jump into new beginnings...

Happy Birthday David. 60 is special from the place I come from . We call it Shastiyapthapoorthi - we celebrate it for all the wisdom and strength a person has gained by living those many years...
Thanks for the wisdom and the light!

Had an opportunity to meet you at your Ojai-fest with Wayne Pepper.
All I can say is 60 must be the new 40.
Best wishes!
