Well today marks two weeks from when I started! Did some yoga today even though I was sore and aching from yesterday's yoga fiesta. I can definitely do the camel pose now and see my toes from above! I can also touch the top of my head to my toes with my elbows on the ground when I reach forward! I was muttering curses at Dave yesterday, but I think he might have just been the best yoga instructor I've ever had...
Nothing really exciting today. Just a quiet morning at the Panni, a quiet afternoon at the apartment, and a quiet cup of soup with a glass of red wine for dinner. Now that I've got a swanky new bathrobe and some slippers to boot, I'm completely content staying in and lighting my little pink candle.
And now, here is one of my favorite Dickinson poems:
We grow accustomed to the Dark --
When light is put away --
As when the Neighbor holds the Lamp
To witness her Goodbye --
A Moment -- We uncertain step
For newness of the night --
Then -- fit our Vision to the Dark --
And meet the Road -- erect --
And so of larger -- Darkness --
Those Evenings of the Brain --
When not a Moon disclose a sign --
Or Star -- come out -- within --
The Bravest -- grope a little --
And sometimes hit a Tree
Directly in the Forehead --
But as they learn to see --
Either the Darkness alters --
Or something in the sight
Adjusts itself to Midnight --
And Life steps almost straight.
good night loves. xoxox
