who am i today 3.30.23



today in my relations:

i was someone who hits stop on the alarm, instead of snooze, and instead of getting up at 5am i woke hours later... today i was someone who cooked first... prepping a bean-and cabbage topping for the vegan meatloaf i made a couple of days back... today i was someone who sat in a cafe fasting and reading, and feeling held by the energy of college students and the baristas... today i was someone who dropped what i was doing to have conversations - with c at the dmv who said hi and i didn't recognize, with a newer friend who came over to me in the cafe to say hi and remind me who she was, to al, who called and i walked over to her, and sauntered through the commons... today, by 4ish, the empty feel of the fast kick in... i was somebody who was weak and wanted to rest... today, in the meeting, i was someone who put aside the writing i was doing, to be fully present... today, in each instance of dropping everything, i was fully present with whoever and whatever i was doing... today i had glimpses of peace...  


today in my practice: 

i was someone who listened to a podcast while and felt the frequency of it compromise Spirit, and then shifted to recitations to Align... it made a difference... today i looked forward to splitting my practice... between the morning and a later time... today, i tried something new, taking cue from another artist... malasana into a leaping frog... today i watched skandasana become more that i thought it could be... today i maintained body consciousness in my meeting, going into a hidden standing practice through subtle movements, wondering it i was going deep enough... knowing i could go only so far as my attention was split...
