Namaste!
I am trying to keep in that yoga frame of mind, however things are really not going my way. Having issues with financial aid (no I don't have an extra 3, 000.00 laying around), my courses are swinging back to that ugly place of math-how does this happen? Or more importantly why?
I guess all I have for now is the ability to stay some what optimistic, which is a little challenging given all of the circumstances of late. If karma would just kick into place my behavior should grant me financial aid, maybe some new shoes, a little happiness, and perhaps a nice vacation in Bali! Maybe even some underwear that fit me!
I guess I can keep in mind the things I do have: I have a place to live, I have food to eat(maybe not the best options at the moment, but I am not hungry), I am reading a great book, my house is bordering on clean, I have friends, and family.
When we are down maybe, even if it is really hard it is important to focus on what we do have.

I need one of those moments! I am a puddle jumper, a player in the sand, just sitting on the beach collecting pebbles, hearing the sounds of the waves and feeling the breeze on my face. Oh I need spring-and maybe that trip to Bali (provided by karma).
Wouldn't it just be amazing to have that Julia Roberts vacation dancing, praying, eating pizza, being absorbed in the people and culture around you! (Eat, Pray, Love). I guess it is good I am leaving behind that non existent rom/com for that trip of finding self. I guess that is some kind of growth.
"Risks must be taken, because the greatest risk in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing, and becomes nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn and feel and change and grow and love and live."
Leo Buscaglia (Living Loving and Learning, 1985)
Do something!
I hope you are experiencing joy.
Love and Light!
