Today is the DAY.
So, I have this vision in my mind that I want to write you a book. A book that will show you how much you have given me purpose, I want to show you the journey of how you got to go to school, through blogs. All I have to do is write you everyday and tell you about you, me and this thing we call life. I have had this vision for moooonths, I even started some things but consistency is not matching up. Until today. There is something about today that has bit me in the butt and I want to make my vision a reality.
I woke up today and did something new in my yoga practice. This. It is called compass pose. It is is my plans to write you a blog about yoga and what it has done for my life. Anyways back to the pose. I am showing you because it is something new for my body to be able to do. I have seen it hundreds of time online done by other people and I never thought I would ever get there. Today I did and as I was crying about it in savanasa pose, I realized this is my life in a nut shell. I am the kind of person who compares them ALL the time to everyone else, I find out how to get to where they are and I take the steps to do it, THEIR way which never works in the end for me. It never works because there is no such thing as doing it the same way one of your classmates is going to do it and expecting the same results. That is the definition of rubbish. Mae it go away. Find a way in school to win in this area of your life. You are so unique in your own way. Your think things I dont tihnk, you do things I cant do, you have weird cool habits I would not dream of having and the same goes for you when it comes to my life. See, that is the beauty in this thing we call life, you are you and I am me. You signed up to get to compass pose at a different level in life than me. Just as I did. Today was the day my body and my life agreed in union to execute compass pose. All those comparisons I have been seeing for over a year around this pose were simply reminders that my body will do it one day too, that is why I kept looking at it. I cried because I was proud of myself. You will have more moments in this life where you realize who and what you are capable of if you detach from being like everyone else. I am 32yrs old and I am now finally putting systems into place to help me detach, yoga is one of them. You are young my queens and kings and I know you have so many grown-ups telling you alot of life lessons and that will never stop, but promise me to listen because we are all telling you that you are you and I am me. I am honored to be fighting for you to find yourself in the environment of school.
Speaking of school, I woke up to an email that I got accepted to a serving gig, I get to be a server at a wedding, I know weddings!! I love love is why. Anywho, that will be nine hours of school money for you. One of the local Pre-schools has agreed to put out a penny jar and brochures for parents and children to share some of their financial fortune with you. An in-depth email will be sent out to parents as well explaining what the BOAT project is about to further more people in unity and possible fundraising ideas. Everyday, I get up thinking of you and I take action to prove it to myself. You are my L.I.F.E, my love, inspiration, fulfillment and energy. Because of you, I have found purpose. Thank you is not even enough.
I love you. I cant wait to meet you in 2019.
