Field Note #1: Maximum Life Per Cubic Inch.
I'm not a "Gucci gear" kind of guy. I'm about simplicity and efficiency. I'm about maximum life per cubic inch... and that's what this expedition is all about: Fitting the most life into the space I've been given.
Field Note #2: "Home"
What is "Home"? Is it a place, a person... or is it a feeling? At 55 years old, I'm not sure I know the answer anymore.
I used to think home was a house, then a town, and later I wondered if home was a person. Now as I prepare to leave almost everything familiar behind, I'm beginning to suspect home may be something deeper than any of those. Maybe it's something we build...
Field Note #3: The Hallway
Hallways are about transitions. A passage from one place to another... and the hallway is uncomfortable because it asks us to leave before we arrive. But if we're wise... we'll derive "maximum life per cubic inch"... even in the hallway.
Field Note #4: Legacy
Legacy is not built. It's produced. It is the residue of a life fully lived. Not what we leave behind, but what continues because we were here.
Field Note #5: Let's do it!
How do you get more life? By saying yes to more life! The people who live the most tend to have a simple default response:
Let's do it!
Field Note #6: The Journey
Let us not always rush to the destination.
The destination gives us direction... the journey gives us life.
Field Note #7: Who You Share it With
Now is a moment... and home is who you share it with.
Field Note #8: What is Love?
Is it a feeling?
A knowing?
A decision?
Or is it perhaps all three?
Field Note #9: Secret to Happiness
Letting go of what was.
Enjoying what is.
Having faith in what will be.
Field Note #10: Being Comfortable with Uncertainty
I don't know yet... and that's ok.
Some answers only arrive with time.
Field Note #11: Truth
Sometimes you just need to let the truth be the truth and run its course.
Field Note #12: Weather
Don't let today's weather convince you the climate has changed. Weather changes... climate is revealed over time.
Field Note #13: Continuity
Continuity is the ability to remain yourself while the conditions change around you.
Weather shifts.
People shift.
Emotions shift.
Circumstances shift.
Condintuity holds.
Field Note #14: The Expedition You Didn't Plan For
We prepare for the journey we choose.
Life often gives us the one we need.
The unexpected expedition is where we discover what remains when everything else changes.
Not who we were. Not what we had.
But who we choose to become.
