Progress

Blogs and journals are such a fantastic way to to explore the Self. I dug out this blog from the pile of things left unattended in my life and discovered that even though I have not accomplished everything I set out to do in this blog, I actually have taken steps in that direction. I wanted to be a yogi, liberate from my nine- to five, implement more sustainable practices and deepen my spiritual practice.

Since my last post, I have traveled the country on a two month poetry tour, attended a ten day silent meditation retreat called a Vipassana and bought my first home and named her, Clementine. {Clementine is a intentional community of artivists centered on sustainability, creativity and mutual empowerment.} I have also enrolled and began the Samatva Yoga Teacher Training taught by Karen Prior at the Art of Yoga. My house even has a yoga loft upstairs.

All in all, my vision board is coming to life.

I have also declared this year as the year of Sadhana, the work of the Spirit. I enrolled in a class at church that is a prerequisite for becoming a minister. Everyday, I am doing something in allignment with my vision. I read my mission statement each day and surround my self with empowering, authentic people.

I am tired of wanting. Want has seventeen definitions and they all mean "to lack." I no longer lack. I am wearing a Universe Samarai suit. All life moves through me and as me. I am awakening to my highest purpose. Like what.
