Trevor McKendrick - We're here, because we're here

Buenos dias.

Read Nick Gray’s long tweet about a wonderful moment he had at a friend’s wedding.

Always look for those moments that make you feel alive.

The Anthropocene Reviewed - Auld Lang Syne (podcast)

Speaking of things that make you feel alive…

I felt that listening to this episode of John Green’s podcast.

I didn’t know that British soldiers in WWI had once sang the lyrics “We’re here, because we’re here” to the tune of Auld Lang Syne as a way of expressing the lack of logic in being in those trenches.

(You can also listen to this on youtube here)

And here you can listen to a British solider singing this in 1916.

Quote from Shaan Puri’s Twitter (tweet)

“For everything I want, the price is intensity.

“But instead of doing ‘the obvious thing, with high intensity’ I look for ‘the secret strategy’ in business, fitness, life… Stupid!

“The past 30 days I’ve made so much progress by realizing ‘intensity is the strategy.’”

What is a friend? (article)

“The next realization I had was that the term “friend” is too broad. It’s clear to me that there are degrees of friendship. But what are those degrees? What makes the strongest type of friend?”
