The Dawn of the Mourning...

I am a little behind on papers I should really be writing for school right now - everything is due at the close of this coming weekend. Instead of working diligently on those, however, I used my day off to practice yoga, have coffee with a friend, lunch with my daughter and to pack my Christmas decorations away.

Yes. It's April.

In my defense, I have been in a limbo and it's time that I come out. I put the decorations up when she was here, we were getting ready for her family. When she left, I could hardly breathe much less fathom packing away decorations that filled a space redefining empty.

Today was the day though - I am on the brink of something big in my life. I can feel it - and I'm creating space (physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually).

My yoga practice is changing my life right now - I'm trying new styles and studios, with friends and on my own. My body is getting stronger, my mind is getting stronger...my resolve is fortifying.

Something is happening. I used to tell my students that the physical body knows and holds stories that the mind has long repressed, so prepare to come undone.

I'm coming undone - in a beautiful way. The dawn of the mourning has arrived...
