With the year 2005 coming to a close I sit in a quite space and think back for a bit...
What was my favorite movie...lol...no really...c'mon, lighten up . Whadya want me to think about...the war in Iraq? OK, that too.

So what WAS one of your favorite movies? Mine was Broken Flowers. Bill Murry was incredable in it. Made to order part for him.
I heard so many people ask what kind of ending was that. To me it was the perfect ending. Realistic!
I also liked "The History of Violence". Completely unrealistic yet so well done that all the violence and surrealism became more of "food for thought" than what you actually witnessed. I thought it was brilliant.
Actually it made me think about the way people see the facades rather than the substance or about how folks take things so literally. For example. I'm starting back with macrobiotics after a 28 year sabatical...I know I know,,,so sue me..lol. Lots gone down in those 28ish years. I may have just needed that lil' space to grow some more character in. Anyway...I'm reading some books I just bought and the one I'm finishing up called, "Food Coverns Your Destiny", Mizuno speaks alot about "income" and I just KNOW so many people think he's speaking from a materialistic point of view. Taking the word income literally rather than seeing it as "what comes in" to your life.
It is true he seems to me to be sort of chauvanistic but we are talking a few hundred centuries ago give or take a decade or three...and who knows what he went through concerning his early childhood or whatever. You know what I mean. Some things need overlooking or looking past to see the trees through the forest.
Same with Macrobiotics. I read some questions in this and other sites concerning "exactly" what one is allowed to eat or should not eat but to me...thats the beauty of Macrobiotics and of life...Its all about being honest with yourself. About recognizing where you are at this moment and where you've been...and presenting that to yourself as a sort of map to help you on the journey of "where you're going".
Anyway...sorry, I get caught up in thought sometimes. I need to sit more and meditate.
So your favorite movie...what was it?
Your favorite book?
I loved Ram Dass's lil' book of quotes. Maybe not my favorite book of 05 but sure is inspiring...and his book about Neem Karoli Baba...the title slips my mind...sorry.
Whats your favorite music of 05?
I had the good fortune to get to see CREAM at Madison Square Garden. Great seats too...I thought the show SUCKED! LOL. Can't believe how much they charged and what people paid to see a geriatric band playing to a yuppie crowd...I know I know...I was there too...tee hee. Hey, at least eric has done a lot of good in his life like getting "The Crossroads" started in Antigua. I know its a great place...I attended that too in May 05. Needed to undo a drinking habit I'd been carrying around with me for far too long. Is drinking Chardonney yin or yang....hmmm.

And who was your favorite president of....ok ok...forget that one.

What wers some of your most inspirational times of 05 and some of your best cross off the personal list and put on your personal list of 05.
and last but certainly not least...any New Years Resolutions?
Mines to bring in the new year with the ten day rice diet and continue on the macro journey.
Be WELL all and have a happy and healthy new year
Namaste'
