The Beneficiaries

Dooley Noted: 7/9/15
 
Since January 1, 2011, I have written this daily blog. 
 
Dooley Noted has been my reflections on life observations, used to help educate myself about my surroundings. 
 
I write Dooley Noted for myself and for no one else. 
 
But people write me nearly every day to thank me for the posts. 
 
The fact that others benefit is truly a gift. 
 
Occasionally, I have judgmental people, telling me I will burn myself out with a daily blog – while working for five schools – while running a practice – while co-owning a gym – while getting another master’s degree – and while teaching for two seminar series. 
 
I don’t do those things out of need. I commit to those things because I love them. 
 
And I can stop at anytime. But right now, no desire exists to do so. 
 
I’m lucky enough to live in a place where my possibilities are limitless. So, I try to make use of every single moment. 
 
I’m the beneficiary of my surroundings. I go to bed every night, completely full of experience and feeling I made intense use of my day. 
 
If you are also benefitting from these posts, then that is wonderful. Feel free to share them. 
 
We are the beneficiaries of each other’s experience, should we choose to open up.
 
As always, it’s your call.
