Great insights as always, Nuu.

I think I read somewhere that his holiness the Dalai Lama was once asked what the key to happiness was and he said, "routines." I thought that was such a seemingly simple and stunningly profound answer. I know that at times in my life where I've kept to routines (morning, evening, at work, with food, exercise, mental health) I have felt much more peaceful. Currently, it is the key to my sobriety. Where I have to be careful is getting t too perfectionist about it and thinking that if I don't do it "just right" it doesn't somehow count.

Thinking good thoughts for you...
