From the Mat

 

A lifetime of  yoga has taught me a lot. It's also shown me how much I don't know and how much there is still to learn. And, it's proven time and again that no matter how much we think we control our lives, life is fragile and we can get knocked over pretty easily. The course isn't straight and despite our thinking we "have a plan" sometimes our plan takes a back seat to whatever the universe throws our way. 

One of the best things yoga has taught me is that we rise. Time after time, we withstand life's challenges. We heal and we move forward. And, the practice is always there, waiting for us when we're ready. 

What's not to love about a lifestyle like that?
