A dear friend of mine was telling me recently about his desire to try a (completely legal) hallucinogenic substance. He was hoping, among other things, that it might give him inspiration and insight.
I felt, and still feel, absolutely no desire to try this particular substance. Even so, our conversation left me with the feeling that I would like to be given some guidance for the year ahead.
So, that night, I asked to receive guidance in my dreams. And then, sometime in the middle of the night, I received it. I drifted into consciousness, and as I was waking, these two directives came to me:
1. Don't overeat, so you won't have to get the sick feeling that comes from overeating.
2. Wear your hair any way you want, and don't worry about what anyone else thinks.
That's it. And yet, that's a lot.
