Notes
Burning the Old Year-Naomi Shihab Nye
Letters swallow themselves in seconds.
Notes friends tied to the doorknob,
transparent scarlet paper,
sizzle like moth wings,
marry the air.
So much of any year is flammable,
lists of vegetables, partial poems.
Orange swirling flame of days,
so little is a stone.
Where there was something and suddenly isn't,
an absence shouts, celebrates, leaves a space.
I begin again with the smallest numbers.
Quick dance, shuffle of losses and leaves,
only the things I didn't do
crackle after the blazing dies.

Friedrich Nietzsche said:
"On the mountains of truth you can never vlimb in vain: either you will reach a point higher up today, or you will be training your powers so that you will be able to climb higher tomorrow."
On Defeats:
"You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it."

Define Yourself!
"Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself."

Albert Camus said:
"You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life."
Meaning of Life?
"Life has no meaning. Each of us has meaning, and we bring it to life. It is a waste to be asking the question when you are the answer." ? Jospeh Campbell
Why?
Why do I want a $40 garlic press?
Remember!
"Only two days exist in the year when you cannot do anything. One is called yesterday and the other is tomorrow. But today is the best day to love, grow, do, and mainly to live."
- Dalai Lama
The best thing
about this game is even if you think you've found all there is to find, there is something new and unexpected just waiting for you to stumble across it. Playing is like being hit in the face with a series of fish of varying sizes and fragrances. Just when you think it's all old hat... BAM. Something new.
