Feels Right

Post-Zumba on Saturday, I asked Alison to stop at the local herb shop before we headed for coffee. The shop was having an annual holiday sale but I didn't realize that it was also their annual holiday party and I'm still thinking about the Chickpea and Spinach Curry (with sprouted rice) and the gluten-free brownies that I ate.

From the shop, we headed to the Mystic place where I can never resist buying something. Recently saw a massage therapist on Instagram touting Chinese Therapy Balls so, of course, I had to buy a pair...

Kept looking at the sky during the weekend because I was captivated with the moon. It was stunning and I tried to capture pictures with not much luck.

Actually like this one.

Went to an awesome yin yoga class tonight. Almost stayed at home but so glad that I didn't. This is my second time in this teacher's class and I can see why people tell you to find the teacher that feels right to you...

Re: the super moon, I also like this 'gram.

Moon of all moons, there are times when a specially big moon rises in the sky. On December 3, we heard that a Super Moon was going to appear. Our expectation of seeing it from the Korean land after many decades was bigger than the moon itself. But the weather was bad... 😞 When you guys called us saying you saw a faint moon on your way back home from our place, I remembered an old song I learned in the elementary school. “Moon, moon, what moon? Round moon like a plate. Where, where, did it rise? It rose above the Nam mountain.” #moon #supermoon #drawing #watercolor A lua das luas, tem dias que a lua nasce especialmente grande. Quando soube que na noite do dia 3 o "super moon" aparecia e eu poderia revê-lo depois de décadas aqui nos céus da Coreia, o tamanho da minha expectativa talvez fosse maior que a própria lua. Mas o tempo estava fechado ㅠㅠ ... Naquele dia, quando vocês vieram nos visitar em casa e no caminho de volta me ligaram dizendo que conseguiram ver a lua mesmo que embaçado, lembrei de uma velha canção que aprendi assim que entrei na escolinha. "Lua lua que tipo de lua, lua redonda como bandeja. Onde ela está? No topo da montanha Namsan." 달 중의 달, 특별히 큰 달이 뜰 때가 있지. 지난 3일 밤에 슈퍼 문이 뜬다고 하길래 몇 십년만에 한국 땅에서 보겠구나 기대가 정말 달보다 컸었어. 그런데 날씨가 나빴지. ㅠㅠㅠ... 너희가 할아버지네 왔다가 돌아가는 길에 그래도 희미하게나마 달을 봤다는 전화를 받고 초등학교 들어가자 배운 옛날 노래가 생각났다. '달 달 무슨 달 쟁반같이 둥근 달 어디어디 떴나 남산 위에 떴지’ #할아버지회상 # 슈퍼문 #수채화 #보름달
