This morning, as I sat down to my morning coffee, my Sweetheart began asking me questions about style choices for my website, which he is revising for me.
Beautiful meditation on one of the most obvious passages of time, Falki. I too have many photos of myself doing Yoga--younger, fitter, more flexible, and with far fewer aches. Yet in these pictures, I can see I'm striving. The very fact that I have several photo sessions of me doing Yoga--which were meant to promote my books--means I wasn't really doing Yoga; I was over there, not in the present moment.
Though I really do miss that fewer-aches body, I'm happier where I am now: here, doing what I'm doing. Thanks for the reminder that the packaging may change, but the person inside is stronger than ever.
Suzan, me too -- so much happier where I am now. And yes...I was often so busy trying to get the perfect shot -- I wasn't actually doing yoga in the pictures of myself doing yoga. Thanks for taking the time to read this one, my Friend.
