JUST BE

I have been quiet since my return from down under. Teaching in a smaller shala now, practicing with new teacher, working on upcoming Yoga Retreat in November, and my possible move to Oz next year brought about many new feelings and perspectives. As I acknowledged many uncertainties that will be heading my way, I was sometimes confused, other times upbeat, but most of the time I was quiet as I stay within a bubble built between me and those thoughts, giving myself space, and face those thoughts only when the time is right.

One thing that had been a major concern for years did shed light though, and I felt so much lighter after that, thanks to Don Peers who is very kind to point out and charismatically showed me what exactly the problem was. I finally found the missing puzzle in my learning journey in Anusara Yoga, and It made me more grounded and authentic as a teacher. Most importantly, I felt Free. I learned that sometimes we have to give up something in order to embrace it more fully. I shared this with my teacher Patrick, and I am blessed to have his understanding and support.

That is one fat light in view of all the unknown. At times when confusion kicked me off center, I held on to a faith. That is, if you love hard enough, everything will sort itself out. With that, Scruffy's face would come into my mind, and I would smile involuntarily.
