have you ever had that feeling?


you know, the one that kind of makes it seem like things have changed?  and changed forever, and in a big way?  yesterday towards the end of our yoga class i was hit with THAT feeling, which is funny because absolutely nothing has changed in our lives recently.  i mean there has been a lot up in the air, which is honestly quite normal, but no changes.  so maybe, the change i felt was just a calming, or an acceptance of this ridiculous life that is constantly awesome and depressing at the same time?  i'm not sure, but it feels good, really, really, good.

then again, maybe this is all just a side effect of so much yoga.

  3. Maybe it's the feeling of acceptance? I get hit by it sometimes, when I just accept that I have no idea what my life plan is and I'm okay with that. I only wish I had it all the time.

  4. i like that feeling as well...a beautiful result of self-awareness and living deliberately (which can be a beautiful result of yoga, so maybe yeah!).

  5. Yes! And you summed it up so nicely ("an acceptance of this ridiculous life that is constantly awesome and depressing at the same time"), methinks.

    Enjoy it! Revel in it!
