12 stupidly easy resolutions for 2012, By Mark Morford

Do you know why many of the wisdom masters and wizened gurus of the world are always laughing? Why their eyes sparkle and they seem to beam out pure love and joy, when they often have almost nothing in terms of worldly possessions, fame or wealth?

It's because they know the secret. They know when you are fully dialed in to the moment, when you are awake and alive to your body and your life, when all senses are alive and the light illuminates everything to the point of absolute bursting, well, there's nothing else to want.

It's the sheer ecstasy of existence itself, blood pouring through, heart aflutter, eyes luminous, body pulsing, air like the finest wine, god in every breath. For 2012, far more of that, please. Join me?

Morford is my favorite writer and I like to share his wittiness with my brothers and sisters here who might not otherwise get to read his writing. This man definitely has a way with words like few do.
