shoats
Today's was a short but excellent yoga hour, and it included all three elements -- four if you count savasana (deep rest). Asanas were kind of breezy; pranayama deep, meditation brief but effective.
It was a new start for me (again), three days after that tough fall I took on Monday morning. I have to say, falling down on the sidewalk like that rocked my world. I didn't think it did at the time, and the fact is it could have been a lot, lot worse. No broken bones, injured joints, sprains, etc. Just lost skin and bruises.
It was dark and I tripped. Splat! Down on the sidewalk face first.
There's some indication I'm starting to have some balance issues.
So today I turned over a new leaf and got a new start. I've done this so many times now I've lost count, but the important thing is to just keep on doing it. If you fall, there's nothing to do but get up and get back on the right road.
I always recognize the "right road" when I see it. I don't know where it's going, but maybe we shouldn't think about that.
Just look at those pink little shoats. They always know the right road to be on. I'll bet they're lucky little pigs who live in a pig parlor. Sad to think they'll probably end up as bacon on somebody's plate.

I didn't know baby pigs were called "shoats" !
That photo makes me happy I stopped eating pigs after seeing "Earthlings" three years ago.
