Wow! I’m impressed. Beautiful Maia!
Exercise and meditation, those are going very well. Socializing and diet are more challenging. I am feeling more resistant to the diet than seems reasonable, so I’m focusing on exercise. As I make headway with that, I know I will get better with food choices and the resistance will be lessened. I had a huge difficulty with the “spend time with a friend” assignment. I know tons of people, I just don’t feel that any of them are close friends. Over the past few years, I have gotten rid of all dysfunctional friendships. However, I haven’t made new healthy ones. So, I am endeavoring to go to local happenings and meet new people. I haven’t done it yet but am looking forward to it. My partner Reader stated that my soul purpose is that I am a teacher. I see it more as a messenger and conduit, but teacher may fit too.
Wonderful! Yes, look for people who are bright and you will see they are all around! I hope you will connect with one and make a plan to meet.
My partner read my soul purpose as being a comforter (especially to women) and as she read that I feel the truth of it. I am very much aligned to such a soul purpose. Meditations and exercise are going well. Some days I am unable to do much exercising so I do what I can. C’est la vie! Diet is going very well, I have transitioned to a place where I don’t feel deprived of any foods. I continue to take olive leaf extract and can feel my body detoxing, so am drinking plenty of water to help with that. Over the past few years, friendships have gone by the wayside as I have taken a different path, so I am trying to rebuild new friendships. I’ve sent out some emails to people I wouldn’t mind catching up with and am waiting for responses.
I love your soul purpose Nan. That is wonderful!
Remember that your friends are also classmates and you can chat with whomever you feel a draw, such as Andrea or Maia, etc on the phone or skype.
Feeling very good this week – yoga, tai chi (15 min.) and walking being really good for me – I feel the difference in my body and am grateful!. My partner read how good the yoga is for me, especially, whih was very encouraging, and I’ve been feeling even better since. Really good for me to make time for my friends, too, and Take the Initiative here. So that feels good too. Gradually working on my diet, which is including lots of vegetables, but some resistance to too extreme (latte in de morning), partly because I’ve been so strict w/ myself in the past. Lessening sugar greatly, which I know is good for me (but a bit here & there), and really liked what my partner read to me about my soul purpose being to connect with others about the deepness of the human soul, especially through poetry: so here’s one today:
Rocks, sky, and cloud zendo
where freedom has no limits
Deep breath to within.
(maybe a painting will come to go with that)
Nice
