Accept consequence.
Be ready to let go.
Change by force or will.
Do not be the flame to extinguish itself.
Exemplify your values.
Fear less, live more.
Give without judgement.
Help often.
Inspire others, be inspired.
Just in all things.
Know the depth of experience.
Love without restriction.
Move briskly.
No is as powerful as Yes.
Observe everything.
Print legibly.
Question your motives.
Refrain from excess.
Surrender thoughts of how things should be.
Trust.
Understand limitations.
Value Silence.
Wander with purpose.
X: account for it.
Your life is yours alone.
Zero is an acceptable starting point.

For starters...
Let's sleep in late and stay home all day
because there is so much to do
and I don't want to have to decide
where to go and what to do.
Let's have breakfast in the backyard
by the lemon tree while we eat waffles
covered in syrup and butter. We'd have
no use for cutlery.
Let's drive to the beach on a Monday
afternoon with no one around. We'd
laugh at everyone at work, believing
ourselves to posses a secret happiness.
Let's listen to records all night, reveling
in each pop and hiss before sound
elevates consciousness into altered
perception, radiates from ear to skin.
Let's sit in silence, but there is still the
sound of our breathing, the primal pulse
that perpetuates experience, enables
a subjective experience of brief existence.
