The Whole Truth?
A watched pot never boils. In an ongoing show of consideration, most of my dears have checked on in me during the writing process but have abstained from probing too deeply. I appreciate it because it’s afforded me the space to bask in the craft; memoirs have such cathartic potential and I have to say I’m feeling the love. As for the message, I could have copied the journals I’ve kept over the years but I’m not sure imparting every detail of each day would have made for a riveting read. From the changes brought on by the adoption of this or that Ayurvedic dietary precept to the ecstatic rediscovery during and after yoga that the body does indeed have its own pharmacological reservoir, I eschewed their inclusion for something less mundane. Those journal entries relay appointments, interactions, moodiness but the larger chronology, the purpose and byproduct of my current introspection, is the whole truth. I think… well, back to the (Himalayan pink) salt mines…

Not Necessarily in (This or) That Order...
As I toil over my little tome and approach the home stretch—I think—I’m gaining renewed respect for life’s forks in the road. They lead me to, among other things, end my brief hiatus from the blogosphere by welcoming you to Part 2 of a rarefied approach to asset management. Part 1 suggested that you identify the portfolio’s precious metals—I’m showing my hand, so anyone uninterested in sparkles may favor the term “commodities”—and savor them. Inevitably, some of the aforementioned forks lead to rough patches and that’s where Part 2, the Gold Standard, comes in. You’ll have to set your own; and reset it, if need be. Today it could be a daydream of coasting through Tuscany on a Vespa and if tomorrow proves especially arduous—tax season, recession, writer's block; take your pick—then you may need to up the ante and replace that scooter with a Ducati. In short, I’m advocating flexibility and persistence (reset, reset, reset). Also, hedge your bets by keeping a ledger or journal of your assets should you require a reminder. You're reading one of mine (I absolutely adored Tuscany), as I hope that by putting this advice in print I've increased the likelihood of heeding it. See you next week.
