Congrats on a successful albeit tough year at times. Not sure how I’d respond to criticism from many mediums (a corner and foetal position comes to mind! ). Looking forward to 2019!

I found it in one comment on your 34th birthday post but I was interested into any insights into meditation and reading more. What methods do you follow and what do you recommend?

I always love reading your birthday posts. It’s amazing to me that you are able to summarize your year into such a pithy little essay. It’s an interesting way to view time and journaling. In fact it reminds me of the 2010 video game, Braid, where everything goes back in time at the end. Memory really is a form of time travel. You my friend are an amazing traveler in geographic spaces, personal spaces, mental/emotional/spiritual spaces, creative and business spaces, but also in time. I wish you many more beautiful years of travel and discovery. Don’t let the turkeys get you down. Anyone who’s criticizing you personally really hasn’t really met you, because if they had they would love you like I and all of your friends, colleagues and acquaintances do. You are a star. Seriously. you make the world a brighter and happier place, because you are deeply kind and genuine, and your sense of wonder is bigger than the universe.

I can’t help but wonder whether you Tabbed to each new block or did you Enter, or did you Click? Crazy stuff…

I started reading more books this year, too. I really enjoy reading self-development books that help me to improve my life. I even consider reading some of them one more time.

I meekly admit I forgot one year so hopefully you’ll forgive me. You’ve had a great year…one for the ages. 🙂 I too can celebrate as my company (I started in 2003), and I have had a record year with WordPress and look forward to many more to come. Keep in mind I’m 58 years old, retired from a former 27 year career in finance and loving WordPress and my second career!! Congratulations and before I forget, Lent is almost hear! Happy Journey my friend.

Hope you’re still enjoying your Birthday groove! Cheers, Matt!!!

Here it is: Of the 13 candidates running for mayor in next month’s Chicago election, 11 have websites. Of those 11, nine are using WordPress. That amounts to 81.81818181818182%, a very cool number!

Having read your birthday posts from this, 35, to 27 and having noticed that your ‘memoires’ only start at 19, I will try and write your fictional happy birthday resolutions from 19 to 0. Stay tuned. Regards.

I’ve never had a chance to say thank you, even though I have been using the platform for many years, so here we are. Your site is beautiful, by the way.

Nice post, looking forward to the list of books that filled your year.
Also, it might be helpful to give more details on habits you’re sticking to as well as your take on achieving heathy balance.
Cheers and have a great year ahead!
