early thanksgiving 2008
11/22- My first introduction. Cook, eat, drink, hang out with some of the best people in the world. Love.
"Dear heavenly father, I want to take this opportunity to formally extend gratitude for the bounty placed before us, the hands that prepared it, and all of the mouths that have come here on this blessed afternoon to embrace mother earth's offering. Knowing that gratitude opens the door to abundance, I am again paying homage to you for your only son who died on the cross to forgive all of us worldly sinners. Help us to enjoy one anothers company and companionship for the remainder of the afternoon, honoring your will and extending compassion for the gift of love and life. Hallelujah. Amen."

yoga
I have been going to yoga at least once a week for the past 6 weeks or so. It's been a while since I have been on the mat regularly; I almost forgot how amazing it is to me. The space I am in when I am at the studio is at ease, in a place of comfort and growth. That space is where I want to be. Yoga challenges me in ways unlike anything else. It makes me stronger in new ways. It keeps me growing. It's part of the balance.

My love for photos with no flash leaves me somewhat blurry...................
Now my prayers have been answered. This adapter turns any ordinary water bottle into a tripod. The best part? its only $10!

the balance
Is what it is all about. In order to keep yourself in a position to grow, a balance must be maintained. I am reminded of something my dad once said, "you need three things in this life; work, play, and love." He's right. For me, though, I think of it more like equilibrium between the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual sides of myself. Keeping the body strong, the mind sharp, the heart open, and the spirit forever seeking. Sometimes they can get out of alignment, but there is always a reminder if you are open to see it; the return of balance never getting more than a small step away.
I was recently reminded of this a few weeks ago as I came down with bronchitis. It is important not only to stop and allow yourself to recover from a setback, but to take that with you and recognize the way in which you have thrown the balance out of alignment. Remember it, use it, always allow for growth. Never stop growing.

Is a great place to go on a Saturday afternoon. Took some pictures in the conservatory.

Got caught in a rainstorm on the way out. Ate some fishes and then went to a housewarming party at John and Amy's. I hate to admit it, but the Barbary...again..............as much fun as it can be, I had an epiphany that the place is retarded......................

so disappointed
In the Diplo show at the Starlight Friday (11/14). It was mad crowded with underage kids on hard drugs. The whole reason I even went was for the after party, which you were supposed to be able to get into if you bought tickets ahead of time. Which I did, but by the time we got to the show, the guy at the door said they gave out all the passes already. As I was walking away, I saw him give passes to a group of 20 year old girls in fluorescent nikes. Oh well............it was on to the Barbary.

bike ride
11/9/08- Sunday rode 21.1 miles out to West Chester. Not nearly enough, although I am graced with acceptance for things that may temporarily get in the way. Control is just an illusion. I am the rock.

Friday 10/31
Then we went to the Club Lyfestile Monster Jam party. The camera died, hence no pictures, but it was surreal. Awesome.
