Happy 2024

The other night I was listening to the Tim Ferris Show interview with Matt Mullenweg when I heard an epic quote that literally made me exclaim out loud.

Health lies in action, and so it graces youth. To be busy is the secret of grace, and half the secret of content. Let us ask the gods not for possessions, but for things to do; happiness is in making things rather than in consuming them.

Will Durant, Fallen Leaves

Isn’t it so good? How fortuitous I heard it on December 31st, just in time for the start of a new year. I am not making any official new year’s resolutions, but this quote neatly encapsulates the changes I hope to adopt in 2024: move my body, stay busy with meaningful work, consume less (unhealthy food, content on socials, spending) and create (cooking and crafts).

Wishing you all the new year’s blessings in 2024.
