Fuller

Walked to work and wondered if I'd left a pair of regular shoes there. If not, I'd think like Andy Dufresne from Shawshank Redemption -- people hardly ever look down.

Listened to part of a Moth podcast, Rattlesnakes, Wedding Rings and Rescue Missions, on my trek. When Ryan Knighton said Sometimes the best experiences don't invite you, it resonated with me. My eyes fell on a plastic, red flower at the same time he said that. Not sure what invitations had to do with the red flower but maybe it caught my eye because Knighton talked about going blind...

Went to yoga tonight after more than a week without practicing. Annie subbed for Joy who's still in Jamaica. There was a Bob Marley song on tonight's playlist making me long for the island even more...

We started class on our backs which is always dangerous for me because I just want to stay in savasana. Annie asked us to notice several things including whether or not our breath could be fuller. My breath is often hall full so, in the spirit of Shawshank Redemption, I got busy breathing fuller breaths.

  1. I always thought that was an odd remark in S.R. In my experience, people hardly ever look UP. I would hide in a treetop instead of under a bridge. Or in someone's shoes.

    I like the way you find omens and meanings in the things you see. I'm going to try that...

  2. LOL about the shoes... I think we all do our fair share of looking straight ahead and I think a treetop would be a good place to hide...

    Lately, I find myself visually drawn to the "oddest" things.
