If they're calcium citrate stones, check out eating less oxalates to make sure you never have them again. I wish I'd known this sooner. Glad all is well now.
I'm very happy for you. I've ordered Higgs's book. I hope it doesn’t have the same effect on me. I love Jules's Coconut portrait. Running toward the new year wishing you all the best.
Awesome list. Sorry about the stones; ouch. Every time I hear that Blake line I can’t help but think of Jim Morrison crooning it in The Doors. Your friend Mark sounds wise. Yes: Movement towards something good versus away from something bad/hard/scary. Books are treasures that save your life. And writing. Let’s not forget the joy of writing.
Thank you as usual for being such a creative inspiration in my life. I've been doing a yearly top 100 list the past few years and I find it such a valuable exercise. I had forgotten so many of the great things that happened this year!
Merry Christmas everyone! Here’s to enjoying the season wherever you are with whoever you’re with. Over here we’re enjoying Christmas with Boney M--my Dads favourite.
Ugh, sorry to hear about your kidney stone! I have suffered numerous stones over the years (starting at age 20, wtf) and it really is the worst ... but also you'll feel like a million bucks when you finally pass it. Good luck!!
Ah nuts, I figured you were dealing with a kidney stone... I know from experience how excruciating it can be, hopefully it will be better soon. Thanks so much for a great year and sharing great stuff with us, hopefully you'll be back in creative form to usher in 2023!
Perhaps a good song to listen to right now would be George Harrison's "All Things Must Pass", (sorry I couldn't resist.) But it's also just a great, introspective song that I like to come back to every now and again. Thank you for this Friday newsletter of goodies and Merry Christmas/feel better soon! :)

Hoooyaaah, Austin!

I fully support naming the kidney stone.

Holy schmoly. Coincidences drive me happily nuts... we had just “met” a few days ago, talking about your Daily Rituals book. And, here you are!
