Lessons in Living

"What if every wrinkle, scar, or gray hair only made you more beautiful? What if every tear you've shed, mistake you've made, and challenge you've faced, only drew you nearer the light? And what if for every breath you've taken, every sentence you've spoken, and every path you've chosen, your fans in the unseen multiplied?"


This a blessing I think...to learn that I have managed to arrive where I am at...alive and Kicking!
Of course...if I wasn't alive I would not be blogging right now.
:)
Gotta keep the sense of humor alive.
That is what gets me through some of the days I mentally abuse myself on.
I do get tired of it. I have a wonderful life...some struggles...some questions (like a 4 or 5 year old)..and lots of friends.
It is unfortunate that I seem to find ways of 'breaking' me. I abuse myself emotionally and physically at times.
I 'push' my abilities of physical exertions in the stupidest ways at times. Like the injury to my shoulder. I am actually behaving this time and letting it heal properly. It is boring, but it is working. That is what matters.
I am doing other creative adventures today. I am sewing and designing a gown for myself. I haven't done that in years.
A GOWN folks and friends....elegant...flowing...and very feminine.
I went by myself last night and listened to a Live Jazz Band at Absinthe Lounge last night. The group was billed as "Jason Davis Jazz Group". They were GREAT! A girlfriend and I even danced to the music.
That is another fun part of my life.
Dancing. I just love it. Always have and always will.

I also went to a small part of a Yoga class. I have never been to one and I am interested in trying it out! The small part I got to attend was very relaxing. I looked at the core strength of these people that had been going for a while.
The bodies are centered, flexible, and graceful. If it helps in my health and balance...I want to try it and see what I can do. The instructor/teacher told me it is a dance...a liquid and slow dance. I believe it!
This excites me and calms me to think of it.

Well...it is off to the doctor to have him look at the shoulder :/ again.

I will write later on and keep all posted on the yoga!!
Hopefully soon I will be back to climbing, too! and bike riding...and other fun stuff!
It is ALMOST SPRING and time to get my kites ready to fly!

Whee!

Kisses to all,
