That is some wise stuff there, Bon. I thought about your words on accepting impermanence and embracing change, and I see that my life has changed so dramatically since I made my Big Plan over 5 years ago now. I have phrased it before as making 'yes' my default response when given an opportunity to try something new. My life now is more varied and richer than I ever thought possible when I was drinking. And it all started by saying, as you did, All right, that's the end of this. I have had enough. I demand more and better, and nothing will stop me.
Well done, Bon. You are headed in the right direction. Onward!
