Hello Weebly, it has been awhile. I started writing earlier and my internet provider took a dive and all was erased. I think it is impossible to accurately rewrite what was lost. On that note may I just say the past month has seen me as student, teacher, part-time employee and person extraordinaire. Okay, that statement sounds self serving. I have a part time job that pays very little and I chase hours. I am lucky in the availability of a teacher that will mentor me. I am fortunate enough to have space that allows me to teach yoga as a few students emerge and arrive for class a couple days a week if I am lucky. If I were truthful it all equates to a day late and a dollar short with so so much to learn. Person extraordinaire? She is that person that wakes each morning with thoughts of gratitude. The one who is surprised by the image of a face lined with stories gazing back in the mirror. She actually feels decades younger than the lined image before her yet still smiles aind says "you are perfect". Every day I jump up ready to make the future and then am greeted with the mundane day to day. The choice being, fall into the familiar or step out of the comfort zone and embrace the unknown. I would seem no different than thousands of others yet I am. We can choose to glumly lump along day to day or wake up and walk a different road. Life isn't easy, I am not sure it was meant to be. But it can be more than a stifled mediocre medicated routine. You can align with the boring, the misery, OR step sideways, take a deep breathe and decide to look at things differently. Go against the status quo. Explore the road less traveled.
