Note to Myself

Today I opened Daily Zen to see this:

In the autumn of my sixty-sixth year,
I’ve already lived a long time.
The intense moonlight
Is bright upon my face.
There’s no need to discuss
The principles of koan study;
Just listen carefully to the wind
The risk further decreases in men who make love thrice a cialis professional india week. In such case levitra 20mg from trusted online pharmacies in UK. Prostate seed implants are just one of the breakthroughs that can make facing this diagnosis less frightening than it once was. viagra online discount Never stop taking the prescribed medication your doctor viagra tadalafil has taken the decision to prescribe it after being sure that the benefits are more than the side effects. Outside the pines and cedars.

 – Ryonen Genso (1646-1711)

This started me thinking again about how I might best use whatever time is left to me. I am 106 days from the end of my sixty-sixth year, and am reminded that for several generations the men in my father’s line haven’t lived to see the end of their seventieth.

My mortality isn’t something I obsess or even worry over, but I am conscious of it. I try to set a goal every morning, and to take a few minutes to reflect on the day at its end, but I really don’t have the discipline to do that consistently yet. My goal would be to use the bulk of each day productively. For now it’s enough for me that, when I become conscious that I’m vegetating, I do something.

Today will be for apartment cleaning. Then we’ll see what’s next.
