in life's struggles....

when you let go, you let life, let love, let. it. be.      thinking i would drown, i actually found air.        struggling to let go again.

to sleep, perchance to dream, and to try again tomorrow.......let go......

interesting....

interesting, and wonder how many are affected by the truly unhealthy crap that makes up the majority of so many of our diets.      beautifully written.... what a talented woman!    really makes one consider what exactly we are running our bodies and souls on.

Greek wisdom

‎"When health is absent, wisdom cannot reveal itself, art cannot manifest, strength cannot fight, wealth becomes useless, and intelligence cannot be applied."
-Herophilus, Greek physician 335-280BC


Trying ginseng and recommitting to health above all.

light your lamp

RT:   Yoga demands that you practice and experience rather than simply believe. Yoga requires you to find out for yourself... "to gather the wick, oil and matches and light your own lamp”.
Pandit Rajmani Tigunait

Beyonce's wisdom:
“I’m learning how to drown out the constant noise that is such an inseparable part of my life. I don’t have to prove anything to anyone. I only have to follow my heart and concentrate on what I want to say to the world. I run my world.”

motivation v. habit

From a friend/acquaintance powerhouse: "motivation [is] what gets you started, habit [is] what takes you there."    To habit........


and another stumbled upon quote....
"You must do the thing you think you cannot do." Eleanor Roosevelt
soon.... check, I hope.       


Why do I have a nasty guttural feeling that I won't allow myself to rest there....   maybe I can proceed with more of a balance at least?  heh....  good yoke.

through pain

Today is another painful day.........   painful because it is so hard accepting 'my best'.     Just feel I wanted to do a much better job, than what I feel I am doing.....    so it pains me.    

Trying to just accept my best as good enough.     It is not a big deal, then can hopefully give more to the community.   Hopefully find and spend time with more friends and family members, hopefully find closer friendships.

But for now, try to celebrate and enjoy the journey.   Accept today and that what is - is alright

Hopefully get back to a life in the coming months....so excited

Thoreau

"I learned this, at least, by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. He will put some things behind, will pass an invisible boundary; new, universal, and more liberal laws will begin to establish themselves around and within him; or the old laws be expanded, and interpreted in his favor in a more liberal sense, and he will live with the license of a higher order of beings. In proportion as he simplifies his life, the laws of the universe will appear less complex, and solitude will not be solitude, nor poverty poverty, nor weakness weakness. If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.(H.D. Thoreau)"

Find the stride

knowing is half the battle.    sometimes i consciously or subconsciously create stories and make grand plans that i then live around.

it is tough for me to be that 'floater in the water' heh... to just accept what comes in each day.   To live in the moment.   sigh, to just be.   Just be.   Then one lives (they say).    It is like running... which I have recently come to enjoy again....    I can be out on a several mile (or km, as they say here) run....    but isn't it funny how it is kinda a known runner's thing (even på norskman!) that the 1st 10 minutes you are 'fighting thru hell' just to keep going.   But if you can make it thru that usually you can settle in and really enjoy the experience.   I have definitely found this to be true --- but perhaps also because I like to start my runs on a slight uphill gradient for some reason....    in any case, back to my point.. I've found on these runs that I can only 'find my stride' where I'm not seeking to adjust or knowing I'm struggling  for short bursts, maybe 20 paces or so, lil more if I'm lucky.   Just so strange --maybe to a perfectionist-- that one can't RUN RIGHT straight outta the box, and every stride.  Every stride, why isn't your form on.   Not that I have that kinda voice, I really enjoy just being outdoors.... but just intriguing to me how difficult in life it is to 'live' (in the moment), as well as on runs, find the stride.

And back to why I even started to write.... it was about heh, forgetting the big master plans that you have consciously or subconsciously set up for yourself, and instead just living today, in the now, as in minute to minute, just being, enjoying, sharing your love with the world.   Smile.

numbers....

if this is true, .. so comical!   phew...   and I wouldn't feel so silly for not knowing mine after 3 yrs.

 "Albert Einstein, one of the greatest minds to ever live, chose purposefully not to even memorize his own telephone number. He obviously had enough brain capacity to memorize a short series of numbers, but still, he chose not to. He viewed memorizing these digits as a waste of precious life energy.  Instead, he used this energy to memorize more important things, which lead to revolutionary accomplishments in the field of Physics."
