forty and holding the future in my hand

I turn 40 this coming Friday, November 19th... AND MAN, WHAT A SPECTACULAR RIDE IT'S BEEN! The people! The experiences! The places! The beauty! The emotions! The lessons! The knowledge! The courage! The accomplishments! The moments! The thrills! The pleasure! The pain! The wisdom! The feelings! The scents! The flavors! The textures! The colors! The sounds! And - most of all - ALL THE LOVE! And to think this mind-blowing Life I've experienced up to this point has just been preparation for D's Life - Part 2. Which, of course, is just going to be that much more fabulous and that much more amazing! I know this because I follow the Path of Truth, which leads ever upward, and ever outward.

Taking my family's resort to the next level and beyond.

• This story only gets better every day.
• An attempt at 100% honesty in every aspect of my life.
• When in doubt, I ask myself, "What would Silky do?" (Scott "Silky" Hayes is a soul brother and an angel of a man. He helps me truly understand that It's all good.)
• "We don't have to have all the answers today." - Kevin Hernandez (my closest soul brother)
• "Many paths lead to the Divine." - M. Balagera (Mumbai, India, 2006)

• "Que nadie te lo cuente. [Don't let anyone out-experience you in life.]" - Luis Perez-Eguiarte (my "enfant terrible")
• "If you are not growing, you're dying." - Karl-Heinz Mueller (my only Swiss friend)

• "Sometimes you just gotta say 'F_ck it.'" - Michelle Groover (my closest soul sistah)
• "Nobody's perfect." - Madonna (another soul sistah)

• "Love is the answer. The only answer." - Bob Marley
• ~~Impossible.~~ I'm possible.

• Be courageous and fearless.
• It's all good.

• It only gets better!

"Life is all about perspective. Amazing thing is, we have 100% control over the angle from which we view people, things, events, and circumstances. Sometimes a minor shift of a degree or two can make all the difference. If Life is not rosy for you, question your perspective. After all, with 360 degrees in a circle, there are at least that many possible perspectives on anything. Thinking three-dimensionally, one quickly realizes that the number of possible perspectives on any one life event or circumstance is infinite and - most likely - beyond our immediate comprehension. In this Universe of infinite possibilities, the possibilities we choose become our reality. We must choose wisely."

The highest in me bows to the highest in you. May this be the happiest day of your life.

And so it is.
