It has been a full year since I had taken a break from work not to mention the daily updates of TDA, so this vacation in Japan (minus the brief work-related foray) has been a Godsend. The original plan was to continue with daily updates of TDA along with some strategic guest posting, but the frantic pace of my trip preparations beforehand combined with multiple stops of the first half have made this too difficult.
I guess it’s time for a few days of private recovery that will consist of relaxing at natural hot springs (onsens), sampling/digging into the many dining opportunities of Fukuoka (yatais), and leisurely reading some books I brought along (the first will be The Art of Deception: An Introduction to Critical Thinking). No doubt I’ll slip in a post or two, but I’m weary and for the most part the next week will be all about me… resting, at peace.

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Everyone needs some time off – from everything. Enjoy the serenity of the Far East for now and I am sure it will pay off with better posts, insights, and energy in the future. I know its hard to let go for a while. But as they say in the program – Let Go and Let God (insert HP of choice here). Eat well, sleep well, and play well.
Enjoy the well deserved break!
