TWENTY-TEN. Congratulations on surviving the 1st decade of the new millennium, now welcome to the next.
MAY THIS YEAR GIVE YOU EVERYTHING THAT YOU DESERVE AND DESIRE.
Here’s a picture of the last sunset of the year from Seminyak Beach, Bali.
Here’s what I’d really like to do for 2010:
- Live in 100% state of compassion as much as possible.
- Meditate diligently. Daily, at least 45 mins in the morning.
- Dance regularly, and without need for a reason.
- Chew my food longer (really!) A vedic dietician told me I should chew at least 32 times before swallowing, can anyone verify this?
- Travel to as many hard-to-get-to locations to catch some incredible sunrises. (So far India, Western Australia, Greece, and Canada are on the list)
- Climb at least 4 volcanos this year. There are SO many volcanos in the neighborhood here. It’d be a waste NOT to!
- Collect some unique and ambient audio with my trusty sound-recorder. Like the sounds on the top of a volcano. Ever wondered what that would sound like?
What are YOU going to do this year? Show the world your commitment by sharing them here in the comments!
I love you guys.

Hi John A very happy new year to you and yours. I have opened a local radio station also on the internet and it’s dedicated to my native country and Irish music and American country too. But we have a great diversity, our presenters who are all volunteers have freedom of choice, so we do get a bit of diversity. I hope you fulfill all your wishes. I love this planet and all it’s wonders. I have learned to see the magic in even the smallest things in nature as I was born a country boy. Growing up in rural Ireland thought me to respect the creatures I share this world with and I in turn passed it on to my children. It is refreshing to meet a person like you who doesn’t have a hidden financial agenda as almost every page on the net are trying to get their hand on our few Euros with false promises of free this or that. I left the rat race long ago and though I don’t have money or assets I have a great degree of happiness in my life and I usually seem to get what I need in which is very litle. Keep up the good work my friend you are a rare gem. Happiness and love to you and yours. Robert
i hope to pray , every day , for peace on earth and in every corner of the universe. and for the end of cruelty to animals at the hand of mankind. i also hope to pray and keep focused on the purification of my mind , body, emotions and spirit. …..i figure this last prayer will cover all the bases and lead to feelings of compassion hopefully more and more. so to all who may read these words i pray that you will have a healthy and joyful 2010 and even though i don’t know you personally i send you love and caring and kindness as real as the beautiful sunsets sent to us by john. these prayers are not from a religous motivation….i was raised an athiest ! but have come to spirituality through some backdoor…. and find praying to be like having a quick “cup of tea ” with the divine ….without having to boil any water ! so from alberta , canada , where the sun sets for me every 5:30pm-ish these days…(thankfully getting later than that every night !!!!) i wish you all a peaceful and grand new year ! from , kathleen xox

The objective and intention for this Beautiful year is to get Married and settle down with my Family. this is a serious issue and very serious to my plan for happy and joy.
I prayed for this determination in the “New Year Eve Service” and hoping to followup this objective with all seriousness. Thank you for your interest and Love!
I’m a cancer survivor, to me, life is transient! Hope to live as long as I could with every moment of pleasure, enjoyment and passions. God bless all.
By December 2010 I will fund and participate in the digging of at least one well for a village in Africa so that a little girl will no longer have to travel 5 miles both way to get water for her family. And to do this I will start it all by giving away a free course on how “anyone” can start their own online business.. Join me and let’s make a difference.
God Bless to one and all.
Regards,
Francois
For the year 2010 my main focus is to live in a mindful way. Mindful in the awareness of the choices I have, whichever action, thought, feeling and belief I choose at any moment. By doing this I hope to create new or stronger thought and behavior patterns so that my life is more free of fear, anger, and stress. I seek a calmer, happier, and more positive supporting attitude towards myself, my family, and for the other beings
I interact with throughout my daily life.
Peace and Love to all.
