I salute the sun but have just returned to being more present in it. I feel myself stiffening, hardening to things around me and it's affecting my poise and breath and I need to let it go a little - or a lot. Flux. Movement and change is upon us, me, and I need to be more fluid and breathe it in a little more willingly. <br>Happy Mother's Day. Snuggle to that little one on our rainy day.<br>PS: Life charged at me when I arrived home Friday, so no visits to your cafe suggestion. Soon I hope. Sydney for the next two weekends and then I think I'll need to sit, coffee in hand and read - I'll let you know when I'm heading out and up and if you're free come too.katiecrackernutshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11731006032499344619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7422372995850609269.post-84360598928910157282009-05-09T17:59:00.000-07:002009-05-09T17:59:00.000-07:00It frightens me, the role of motherhood and how it...It frightens me, the role of motherhood and how it's the most important one. It frightens me because I'm a mother! And I don't want to recreate how I was mothered. Of course, fearing this is exactly how I will re-create how I was mothered! I need to mother with more care and presence of mind and heart. Maybe I will start yoga again, and this will help. <br>It helped me to open up in the beginning too...now I need it again.Ruthhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17992959538232152831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7422372995850609269.post-54806196877170877002009-05-09T16:31:00.000-07:002009-05-09T16:31:00.000-07:00i got here via ladybug-zen, and just had to take a...i got here via ladybug-zen, and just had to take a moment to tell you how beautiful that post was! my first meeting with youga and meditation happened when i was sixteen, and it has made a huge impact on my life. sadly, i haven't been able to do much yoga the past year due to wrist problems, but your post makes me want to try again.skymringhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13423669994232456611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7422372995850609269.post-6939428168731432942009-05-09T12:13:00.000-07:002009-05-09T12:13:00.000-07:00this is great. and so true!thanks for your comment...this is great. and so true!<br><br>thanks for your comment the other day.
