That is an excellent book and a great post! Easter is a very thought provoking, back to the basics kind of thinker.

JD.... another fantastic and thought provoking post. I am embarrassed to report that I laughed out loud several times. Your post hit so many resonating frequencies for me. I have long enjoyed sailing on the weekends. Garage-saling. Looking for tools at a steal. Not worth the time if you do not count the fact that it got me out of bed early and was often quality time spent with like minded friends. I have also tried meditation, and I feel like a total fraud after 60 seconds. I am not throwing stones, just saying that I have also jumped on some bandwagons. Time is among the only non fungible assets, and your post covers this well. I bristle at the notion that moving on is as virtuous as sticking to something though, even though I know it is true, as you have aptly quoted. Maybe a future post on how to distinguish between which is the more moral decision, at the time? It is only after the fact that I realise I was only stubborn, or even worse.... lacked resolve. Will think about this a bit over the next week. Look forward to your next post!
