I love the 80 year old reflection read aloud, the reading of it reminds me of the ache I felt holding my children, knowing that I must absorb every moment and that the luxury of being present is so very precious.
"May distinct things happen to you, like when you were a child." Beautiful reminder from Manuel Vincent
A great way to remind us that there is so much to love about life, and that all we need do is give these things our attention. Attention is our scarcest resource, yet most of us fritter it away daily. Why, because we rarely take the time to consider what deserves our attention and enriches us. For that reason, my personal pick is Walden. Happy New Year!

@Alberto - incredible collection of positive content in a post. What a way to kick of 2026!
You really go hard on the CS Lewis. Some part of me returns to Harold Bloom's analysis. Who knows?
