Loving what is..
Aug. 20th, 2009 12:02 pmAnother beautiful morning checking in with the online world over a scone and a chai tea. Wifi really helps, the internets are wicked slow at my place and thus I do not go online nearly as much as I used to. C'est la vie.
I continue adding rows of stitches to my second sock, and I look forward to finishing the laceweight alpaca project and moving on to some fun spinning with some of the beautiful roving that's been taunting me from the pile across my room.
I have absolutely no idea who might show up for kirtan in Manchester tonight.. it's been off and on there, and while I'm glad to come down and sing in my hometown and get to say hi to my family, it's kind of sad when only a few people come out.
Some areas seem to have large kirtan communities, and some don't. I'm thinking about doing a special kirtan combining a bit of asana practice, but I'd like to brainstorm a bit more about it.. they are both part of yoga, which is really the mindfulness of our union with the all in each moment in many different forms and practices. Asana is really only a small part of yoga, and we work with the physical practice to still our minds for deeper meditation. Kirtan moves our minds into the place of no-thought when we allow ourselves to let go and sing from the gut, just like the physical practice of postures can bring a yogi to that place of engagement with this instant.
My time at Webs continues to be productive and enjoyable, and my world is busy, full and happy. My thankfulness for each moment abounds, and spills over into each stitch, each posture, each breath.
Later.
-Me.
