I've been quite alone these last weeks and it has been a good moment to reflect on the direction I want my life to address in the close future. I have reached to some very simple conclusions, but very powerful nevertheless:
1. Give priority to the care of my body.
I started going to the gym regularly last summer and have kept going all through the year. But in the last months my interest in my body has extended to the pleasureful experience of life. I read Joseph Lichtenberg's account of the importance of sensual pleasure for the self and I have started to get some massage and spa sessions. I cannot remember being so concerned with well being in my life. I will probably start doing Yoga in September. I think this reframes my life in quite a big fashion.
2. Be more open to enjoying differences in my relationship with the people I know.
3. Be more hopeful about the future.
It is a consequence of enjoying more every moment, of working on the sensual experience.
In terms of your body and how it feels: it's aging. This company has the market cornered:

Enjoy

Hi Frank. Thanks for your reference. As you say, I see myself as achieving a sense of maturity.

Felix, this is good. You have centered on yourself and are working out from there (no pun intended). It is good to have you back. I hope you enjoy your vacation time!

Felix, its good to see that you are reframing your mind and body. This is extactly what "re-imagine" is all about. take time to care about yourself- in mind, body and soul. The "spirit" twirls around these elements and if you care about yourself, you will find yourself a healthy and wiser person !!
I like the Yoga part.. I still do my tai chi at least 1 hr' per week !! :)-
Btw, con'grats on the 3 amigo's- I'll need to order that one for sure !!
