Do you realize how much content you create on Facebook? Unlike Twitter Facebook doesn’t offer any easy way to grab your own content. I went through my postings of the last six months and manually copied a good part of them. After all they are mine – not Facebooks’. I’d encourage you to do the same thing. It gives you a good glimpse of what occupied your mind at a certain time. I’ll do this monthly from now on. ready for a bundle of thoughts from all over the place? Here six months altogether. Enjoy!

• 12/31 – In case you haven’t figured out your look for New Year’s eve yet. Nice take on Avatar :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zaJdq0VUtk
• 12/30 – What if Apple wouldn’t introduce a tablet device in January and just introduces iPizza instead? iZenGarden would be another good one – it’s also flat. Message to Steve Jobs: People want something flat that they can touch. Can you please come up with something?
• 12/28 – Airport Parking Reservations has just been offering me a special deal for A New Year. Sorry but that’s not where I intended to spend New Year’s Eve – even if it is covered parking with free appetizers
• 12/25 – Some things really taste like sh*t. Let’s hope no-one is serving them to you today. Merry Xmas!
• 12/24 – The Tiger Woods riddle is solved: He is a mormon but practiced secretly. He was doing try-outs for a few extra wifes and was about to move to Utah. His 1st wife and him couldn’t agree on the color of the bathroom tiles in the new home. So she moved out.
• 12/23 – Major changes ahead in Germany: Half of Germany will be glued to their TVs again. Beer consumption will go up accordingly. People will grow mullets again. Guys that can even afford a bicycle will run around in Mercedes caps. There will be convoys of Mercedes cars honking on Sunday afternoons. Why? Schumacher is back in Formula One. Good times…
• 12/20 – How are your Xmas preparations coming along. Have you already finalized your lines that will serve the first blows to your family members? You  that presents can say more than a thousand words ;-) And how about making an appointment with your therapist on the 26th at 8AM? Be proactive! Love, love love…love is all around :-)
• 12/17 – Now I know why I am SOOOOO tired. Because they are playing EXTREMELY crappy Xmas music everywhere. My heartbeat is at 35. No Babyface, no Boney James Funky Xmas, no Franco Sattamini (got to check him out), not even my man Will Downing. Just lowest common denominator CRAP EVERYWHERE. Enough ranting. I am going home now and get my fix.
• 12/16 – The first 10 people that send me a message me their mailing address will get a personal Xmas card from me. No matter who u are & where u are. I am just not into the Happy Holidays from everyone for everyone via FB, Twitter or whatever else thing. Who cares? I support the logging business and the USPS :-) The way the US…
• 12/15 – I need to buy myself some presents and wrap them up quickly. This way I’ll forget what’s in the packages before the 24th. I am really that good ;-) It will make for a splendid xmas.
• 12/14 – As for Tiger Woo: I might just prostitute myself and take some golf lessons & pick up some of his endorsement contracts. There is a void to be filled. I don’t sleep around that much and should be able to hit a ball in a month or two. I shave almost daily and would even have a Gatorade here and then. I don’t crash my ca…r at 2am either. You’ve got my number. Let’s seal the deals.
• 12/13 – Charlie Brown Xmas tree? Heck no. I won’t settle for anything less than a 6 footer. My house is pined out. There some elves dancing around it at night but that’s just fine. They bring good spirits into the house…it’s a midwinter night’s dream…
• 12/12 – Has anyone done one of those posts yet that only you can see? People with multi personality issues are already raving about that new functionality. How about: Note to Klaus – Water heats up much faster when the stove is actually switched on. I could do hundreds of these :-)
• 12/10 – I figured out the perfect diet: Eat less & work out more. Beware: it is not FDA approved yet. Continue reading Select Facebook posts July 2009 – December 2009

I made a pledge to myself to go out and celebrate tonight.

BUT: This is also a day to reflect and set intensions.

• I decided that 2010 will be a good year.
• I decided to spread out positive energy.
• I will live it one day at a time and be fully present.
• I will nurture my friendships. So it doesn’t feel awkward to reach out when we need to each out to other.
• I decided to meet some of my virtual friends face-to-face.
• I will cook more and eat less processed food. I am commited to a healthier diet.
• I will do 5 things I’ve never done before in my life.
• I will make sure my daughter feels loved and supported every day of the year.
• I will Live, Laugh, Love – and try make smart choices.
• I will try to stay open: “Minds are like parachutes. They only function when they are open.” – Sir James Dewar

I sincerely hope you’ll find some time to think about transtioning into a new year. A cycle comes to an end and at the same time we continue to walk on our paths. Where are you heading? Without intensions you won’t reach your goals.

Decide for yourself: Are you letting 2010 slide by or are you entering it in a conscious way and intend to stay in the mindset?

These are simple choices to make but they can go a very long way – for you and for many others. Don’t just make this a day to numb yourself.

I also have a lot to look back at today. 2009 was rocky and life-changing. Today is a day to be extremely grateful for where I am today. It is also a day for closure.

I have received an incredible amount of support this year. Today I am taking some time to reflect on that. I feel lucky, balanced, grounded and filled with inner peace. That is owed to many others. Thank you!
