Finally, the humidity has diminished and I can work without fans. The lake is sending off a fresh wind which is wafting into the studio. A little jazz music... I'll work tonight without having to freshen my palms too often.
Tomorrow, the last stage of the Tour de France. Already, we have heard an interview with Thomas Voeckler, disappointed by his questionable strategy yesterday, but philosophical about his overall performance and extends a generous accolade to his teammate, Pierre Roland, who keeps the 'maillot blanc', and who protected him through so many moments during the Tour.
Voeckler has the right attitude: he is of the school of 'doing his best' and one cannot ask for more. If this gives pleasure to the French nation, this is the bonus. And in terms of the future, he was clear. He would just continue cycling in the way he knows best and whatever the results, this is fine with him.
I like the purity of his thinking. It can be applied to any activity. Living life from the inside out is so important and if what one does pleases another, this is the proverbial icing on that ever so proverbial cake. I try to live like this daily, stay focussed on what I do best and if it gives pleasure, wonderful.
