Reborn at 50: 3 days to go...
http://reborn-at-50.blogspot.com/2007/02/3-days-to-go.html
A Journey of 83 Days. Wednesday, February 21, 2007. 3 days to go. I woke up early enough today to see the sunrise! For most of the day, I relaxed in the resort, exercised, swam, played sax, and read. Later in the day I took the car and toured around Ubud. I looked for a real estate office, which was closed by the time I found it. The idea was to get some information about the market for land and houses. Hopefully I can find out tomorrow. Photograph: Dawn (top), and carpaccio in Ubud (below). I love posit...

A Journey of 83 Days. Wednesday, February 21, 2007. 2 days to go. I started the day calmly alive. After several days in Ubud, I found that I am slowing to the pace of life in this place. Actually, though, people do things here at many speeds. Among the fast movers are the motorcycles, gamelan players, and dancers. Many other activities move at a leisurely pace. More talk about real estate followed as I visited the local real estate agency and had a long discussion about the pros and cons of buying and le...

Reborn at 50: 10 days to go...
http://reborn-at-50.blogspot.com/2007/02/10-days-to-go.html
A Journey of 83 Days. Tuesday, February 13, 2007. 10 days to go. Only ten days are left till I leave behind the “4” in my age and enter into new life opportunities of my own making. Today I had a sense of accomplishments starting to unravel. As I observed myself in this experience, I noted that I was deeply concerned about some things in my work, an area of life where I usually have few troubles. When, on the other hand, I experience a problematic situation or a negative emotion, I found that there are t...

Light in the dark - never mind rules - follow the muse. Friday, April 02, 2010. Rubbed hot and cold. Walk without destination -. Manila, 2 April 2010. Photograph: Contribution to Jalan Bisma, Ubud, 5 years ago. Beautiful imagery. Your poems are short and sweet and yet have meaning; I like this poem very much in particular. July 13, 2011 10:38 PM.

http://reborn-at-50.blogspot.com/2007/02/1-day-to-go.html
A Journey of 83 Days. Friday, February 23, 2007. 1 day to go. On the last day of my 49th year, I had a full program, making a tour of real estate around Ubud during daytime, and visiting a temple in the evening. The clock has now passed midnight, and my birthday has begun! I will take a good rest now and rise up early to enjoy a great day. Saxman, the year leading up to your 50th birthday is your 50th year not 49th. Just a minor comment. All the best,. February 28, 2007 at 12:16 PM. Two years later now.

A Journey of 83 Days. Monday, February 12, 2007. 11 days to go. And in the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years. 8212; President Abraham Lincoln. The bearded man was right. And I cannot imagine how I could face myself at the end of a life that was not well lived. How sad it would be to think of all the opportunities that weren’t used. At this time of day, I feel drawn to my inner arena, to the solutions that lie within. She says it so well…. The one and only. And n...

A Journey of 83 Days. Wednesday, February 7, 2007. 16 days to go. Vietnamese wisdom holds that if you want to change things, you should take many small steps. At least that is what I was told several years ago. It is possible that this wisdom has itself changed by now. I find it more difficult to think of cases where dramatic change have produced something positive in one big step. Martin Luther King’s “I have a dream” speech? Gandhi’s salt march? Several bloodless revolutions around the world? With pict...
