What would it mean, to live life “One-Buttock”?
My friend,
Today I’m actually going to refer to something celebrating January 11, 2008. No, not because it was the First recorded case of snowfall in Los Angeles, California in 1949. Nor because United States Surgeon General Dr. Luther Leonidas Terry, M.D., published a report in 1964, saying that smoking may be hazardous to health. (Thereby being the first such statement ever made by the U.S. government.)
While these things are true, on the night of Friday, January 11, 2008, I narrowly avoided dying in a car accident, driving into San Francisco.
It was one of the best things to happen to me – because all of a sudden it hit me – like the cement embankment – that I was living life, pounding away… and what if I only had this night to live it in? Was this the life I wanted to leave behind?
No. Like Benjamin Zander, below. I too want to help people live life – One-Buttock.
So in the New Year, how will you live, if you were to look at your song’s E-note… 5 years from now? 2 years from now? 1 year from now.. knowing it is coming to a close.
I’ll let Mr. Zander explain..
To flourishing,
Kaye
