"you seem different"

That's all I'm hearing these days. From the sound of my voice to the clarity of my eyes and skin people r really noticing that something is in fact different! I feel like I am generating a light and I feel light (noun and adjective). There is an expansive quality to my being that is partly La La Land (my destination of choice) and partly the mall (my other destination of choice). Meaning that I'm at once ethereal and grounded. At lunch with a friend who shall remain nameless i was told that i was acting like I was having a good LSD trip at a Grateful Dead concert. My mediations have been incredible. Seeing myself floating in the current room at the Casa and seeing myself wearing these fabulous gold manolo blahnik gypsy sandals that I want. The way I see it is that all things r possible! Am I making sense? I feel complete and total exceptance of my spiritual and physical sides. No judgment (that's the key!). Perfect alignment in a yoga pose or in life is effortless. When we r in that place then everything just flows with grace. Duh! Now I get it.

So I'm just sitting here swigging holy water, meditating, reading, teaching and watching Oprah. Have barely (and happily!) left my house in the last 10 days. This sense of contenment is so peaceful. I feel no "shoulds" or guilt about anything! That's big. I am seeing and holding myself in perfection. Not in the egotistical, boastful way but in the whole, complete essence of god way. Speaking of the connection to God. I just received my Verizon bill from my trip to Brazil: $700 !!!! Wish I had used my new found expansiveness to call people and not my cell phone.

Here is the last paragraph of The Prayer of Caritas (charity): God give us the strength to help our progress enabling us to rise up to you; give us pure charity; give us faith and reason; give us the humbleness that will make of our souls a mirror to reflect your image."
