Self-acceptance is more important than others accepting you.
A rainy day in Memphis...
Good Grief!
It's been too long since I last posted here! It dawned on me this morning that I had not even downloaded, much less setup Tumblr on my new phone. Here's to another year (three months in)! Happy blessings to all of you who have continued to follow me despite my ridiculously long absences. I do appreciate it. Now, for a quick recommendation... I came across a beautiful guided journal printable on another social media outlet which eventually linked me to the source and artist of the pretty pages I have quickly grown to love! She has colorful pages and colorless pages of each page number available. That means, you can choose to color in her hand drawn pages yourself or print the colorful option and get to filling in the prompts! How awesome is that?! So, check out www.AdventuresInGuidedJournaling.com
Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.
Søren Kierkegaard
Last Friday, a couple of us larger yogis went to our instructor’s house and took pictures in her living room. Some will be used at an upcoming workshop she’s teaching for other yoga instructors on how to offer body positive cues and pose modifications to make their classes more inclusive.
She gave us the prompt: “What do you wish more yoga teachers knew about creating body-positive classes?”
We said: Don’t assume that we aren’t as strong or flexible. Don’t assume that this is my first ever yoga/fitness class. Don’t assume that I hate my body. Don’t assume that I’m there for weight loss. Don’t assume anything about what I eat. Don’t assume anything about my health.

I am so very thankful and grateful the studio I love has classes for the larger folks. Many of us are more flexible than the tiniest people who come through the door. There are plenty of variations to help everyone, at any ability level or size, find the pose. There is no lack of laughter in class. In fact, laughter is the fuel on the fire before, during, and after class.

Little known fact about me: the Ultimate Warrior was my favorite wrestler during my childhood. I carried an Ultimate Warrior folder at school for a couple of years. RIP to the Ultimate Warrior :(
I wish I could show you, when you are lonely or in darkness, the astonishing light of your own being.
Hafiz of Shiraz
Creativity comes from awakening and directing our higher natures, which originate in the primal depths of the universe and are appointed by Heaven.
I Ching
Life forms no logical patterns. It is haphazard and full of beauties-- which I try to catch as they fly by, for who knows whether any of them will ever return?

We must go ahead and see for ourselves.

You cannot travel on the Path before you have become that Path itself.

We know too much and feel too little.
Bertrand Russell
He told me how it was funny to see me so excited by the cotton field because he grew up out in the country. I told him how it had been a long time since my last up close and personal interaction with raw cotton. It is growing amongst the travelers and highways. To some, its existence is insignificant. To me, it is life, history, and beauty all haphazardly rolled into one. My not-so-giant-steps carried me into the field, happily. The ground was soft and damp from the dew, the sun in a constant game of peak-a-boo. The moment was peaceful and altogether wonderful.
The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations.
