A new day.


Author Pico Iyer, in his book The Open Road, writes the Dalai Lama says: "Until the last moment, anything is possible." The Dalia Lama is speaking of politics but I'm taking him at his word and applying it to this day, and to my conviction that discovering is both an obligation - and a joy.

Sunset brings on a new day.

And today I am going to find a road or lane way that I haven't explored - and ride along it. Today I'm going to learn at least two new Thai words or phrases. Today I'm going to start reading a new book. Today I am going to finish watching The Book Thief, it's a fantastic movie. Today I am going to try something new for breakfast. Today I am going to feed Buddhist monks at daybreak. Today I'm going to do some of the things I did yesterday - but differently. And I'm not going to do something today that I routinely do - and find something different to do with my time.

As Pico Iyer writes in his book:
All we can do is remain ready to make the most of every eventuality.
