In my group activities, the women in my writing group with Zee are writing amazing, heartfelt pieces. In my yoga classes, especially Gentle Yoga, people who made a yoga resolution back in January are still showing up, week after week. My book group is so smart! Every month, they blow me away with the insights they bring to that month’s selection. The day after the book group met, Kathryn Marco Polo-ed me, gushing about how grand the discussion was. So even though the world is so very fucked up right now, there have been things that have been inspiring me in April.
Month: April 2026
Change of Life
I didn’t even notice The Change when it happened to me twenty years ago. That was the medieval era, when there was nothing to do about it but endure it. What else could you do?
Life Is A Rope
“I’ll teach you! It’ll be fun. You’ll be good at it, what with all your yoga flexibility and proprioception.” I think: And my fear of heights and my right/left dyslexia. But I say, “Sure! Let’s do it!”
Making the Rules, Then Breaking Them
But I was very happy to forgo my meditative morning to help Linda after this hip replacement surgery, even if it meant interacting with her before eleven A.M. It feels really good to be able to help someone.
Begin Again Q2
Why is it that we know all these things philosophically, —that the process of living is what life is all about; that the path to the goal IS the goal, that lists don’t work, only actions work? Why do we set goals for Q2? Why do we point our ship in a particular direction?
