SEMI-DAILY
Musings
About yoga, life, and how hard it is to sit still.
What’s your role?
There is often a value-judgement buried in statements about our roles in society. I reject it.
The bee and its New Year’s Resolution
Ask yourself: is this something I do to feel “better” or to feel “better than” ?
The road to us
This is a global phenomenon. We all are lifting our heads and looking around, as if after a trance.
The wonder of life
It’s all in the detail. I sometimes forget but I always know it is true.
Love lives here
Our home is kinda small and dinged up. But we cram so much in there, love, luggage, and all.
Trust is many things
Distilling trust into its components has helped me see many of my relationships much more clearly.
In which I reclaim my time
We measure time in hours and days mostly for the sake of capitalism. But I am reclaiming it as mine.
So-Hum: I am that
So-Hum or Ham-Sa is one of the most commonly used mantras for meditation. This is what it means to me.
Picture perfect
We seem to prefer to live in what we can all “the immediacy of delayed gratification.” What’s with that?
The power of silence
I have found my meditation mojo again, mostly because there is silence. Is that a cop-out? I honestly don’t care.
In which I watch a lot of bad movies
Parenting is a mirror of how we approach community. “Normal” parenting in popular culture shows us how we are currently doing on that score.
Round and round it goes
More and more people are on the move, for good, bad, and downright ugly reasons. What does that mean for our sense of community?
Winter is coming
Even as I know that time will move me from one place to another, through October, through November, to the beautiful bright snow and cold, I also know that now is all I have.
Logistics can be grounding
I think I know what knots to tie and I believe we are at the correct buoy. And there is something deeply satisfying about that. The rest is weather: ultimately nothing I can control.
