shaman someday soon It may or may not be apparent here, but I feel so positive about life. Having walked on this planet for the past thirty years, I think that I am finally getting closer to who I want to be. Not everything makes sense to me, but I am able to look past more of what used to bother me. Ever so slowly my attempts at trying to be zen become less and less of an act. When I was growing up my father often asked me if I thought that everthing in life was a joke. Through time that parental gem of wisdom has stayed with me and I realize more and more that my true response to that silly question would have to be yes. There is so much sorrow in life that I don't want to waste mine pondering earlier mistakes and trying to avenge past wrongs. Before I die, I want to see and explore as much of this strange planet that we call home. I want to see the Great Wall of China and the temples of Angkor. I want to see St. Petersburg and Moscow. I want to see and climb both Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt Fuji. Without bursting into song, I have to say that my life gets better with each passing year. My only hope now is that this trend continues until the day that I die. ... Now having slept, reading what I wrote above does seem a bit odd, but I still think that it is true. Life for me does get better with each passing year and I don't want that to change. I also love the fact that I can rise above so many things that used to annoy me. My concentration seems to be sharper as well.
