“There are times when it will go so wrong that you will barely be alive, and times when you realize that being barely alive, on your own terms, is better than living a bloated half-life on someone else’s terms”

—	Jeanette Winterson, Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal? Surrender into child's pose....literally.

Be Still & Listen

"A golden light is in our midst. It burns as peace, as hope, as love, as God. Feel its healing presence pass through you. Send it to another with a kind & loving thought. Know this: As it heals the inside, so can it heal the outside--for the world is but a reflection of what lies within." (S Myrvang)

The only way we find that healing presence is to allow ourselves time to be still and listen.  Give yourself just 5 minutes.  It can make all the difference. 

Spinal Twist

Wring yourself out....like water out of a rag.  And when you think you've got it all...twist in the opposite direction and wring a little more out.

Simple & Quiet

I have been reading Ranier Maria Rilke and these thoughts have inspired me:
"I wanted only to advise you to progress quietly and seriously in your evolvement.  You could greatly interfere with that process if you look outward and expect to obtain answers from the outside--answers which only your innermost feeling in your quietest hour can perhaps give you." 
"If you will stay close to nature, to its simplicity, to the small things hardly noticeable, those things can unexpectedly become great and immeasureable.  If you will love what seems to be insignificant and will in an unassuming manner, as a servant, seek to win the confidence of what seems poor, then everything will become easier, more harmonious, and somehow more conciliatory, not for your intellect--that will most likely remain behind, astonished--but for your innermost consciousness, your awakeness, and your inner knowing."
---from Letters to a Young Poet

Flyknit Racers

I walk everyday. Everyday.  For the past 9 years I have faithfully walked everyday.  I can wear a pair of shoes out quickly.  You would think I would get new shoes often, but I don't because I am very picky about my walking shoes.  After much research I ended up ordering the new Flyknit Racers from Nike.  I like them alot!  I highly recommend them.  I also highly recommend walking everyday.  It will change your life.
