A Bunch of Random Thoughts in my 64th Year

Just thinking about a couple things and jotted them down. Might add later 

1. Family is usually but not always there for you. Start and end there, though
2. Your friend group is smaller than you think in hard times
3. Men need to find their own center/frame, then the world
4. The love of women is often conditional and vows can mean little
5. Men are the true romantics
6. Children thrive with male caregiving, denying them that should be a tort
7. Introverted women are hot
8. Lifting and sun >> antidepressants
9. Fear of old age solitude is often female old-age fear-projection, men can thrive in solitude
10. Left brain is king, until right takes over eventually
11. My first (relationship) rule: solo travel is non negotiable and it's not personal
12. My second (relationship) rule: no dead bedrooms ever or I'm out
13. Corollary to 2nd rule: chore-play demands are a form of self-pimping barter
14. Mountain forest >> beach
15. Parenting is the great masculine, and human, adventure of life
16. If you want to write, read a lot
17. Topophilia is a real thing for some people like me
18. West of the 100th meridian and east of CA is a blessed land
19. Road trips, esp 1-on-1 with daughters, is zen-utopia
20. North, and up, is the proper direction
21. The betrayal of a male friend is worse than that of a gf
22. In business, the most confident men can be dumb af...and wrong
23. A woman's heart needs at least 1sq mm of softness or don't bother
24. First snow is always magic
25. Burn all love letters after age 60
26. First sip of a Rye Old fashioned is pretty good. Third drink is a waste.
27. Don't trust an ambitious, absent wife
28. Curate a library, read classics, start with Greeks and the Bible
29. Learn just a tiny bit about art and music
30. Get as jacked as you can and don't squander your 20s in that respect
31. Be kind to animals but don't make them the center of life before all else
32. As a man, learn to cook. In the 21st C no one is going to cook for you
33. Build wealth and then learn how to protect it over life. Latter is hard.
34. I used to trust first and then let it be proved wrong. Reverse that
35. Trust+honor+integrity is the "one ring" that rules them all
36. A bonfire and a drink with friends near water at night is peak life
37. Writing is organized, coherent thinking...more akin to breathing than not
38. A feminine, kind, lovely woman that peacefully supports your mission is a breath of life

I'll add later if it makes sense...
