Today

Sleep & Rest: About 8 hours or a little less.
Yoga Practice: Nothing.
Sun & Air: 3? hour meeting with my brother in a garden.
Sweat & Fun: I sweated a little because it was hot today when I was busy doing something, but not because I exercised. The day flew by today. Not enough time (more like not enough discipline! we always have time, it's a mater of choice) to make a workout happen.
Fruity Meals: Black grapes / Black grapes blended with banana / Big bag of mixed fresh figs / Raw tomato stew with shredded red cabbage / A few almonds
Creative Work: Lots of brain storming with my brother. He gave me some great feedback. Before & after that I worked on something to get my new website moving forward.
Give - Share: Shared my figs. Including a new favorite fig! (*drum roll*) The Candy Stripe Fig. Not joking. It tasted like whipped cream & jam. Super buttery sweet taste. They were very expensive, I only bought 3 small ones. My brother & I split each one. We couldn't believe how good they were!
Incorporeal Bliss: Sharing a "fig-a-licious" moment with my brother. Sharing ideas with my brother. Sharing laughs with my brother. Later my nephew joined us, then we were sharing funny moments & ideas with our nephew!

Today

A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself. - Joseph Campbell
Sleep & Rest: About 8.5 hours or a little less.
Yoga Practice: I'm going to do some spinal breathing before bed.

Creative Work: Got good work done today. A little of everything. Things are moving forward! yay!
Give - Share: Shared my thoughts & opinions with my nephew, shared great news with my sister, & shared my artwork with someone I just met.
Incorporeal Bliss: I was hearing this beautiful chime sound as I walked today. I was so eager to find the source. I kept walking & walking and the sound never stood still anywhere. I kept thinking that I would eventually pass the house that had the wind chime. I would see the the chime blowing in the wind & leave the sound behind me as I walked away. But the house never revealed itself. I eventually discovered that the chime was really a few small bells attached to an "icee" cart. The icee vendor was rolling their cart a block in front of me. I had no idea it was them until I eventually passed them. The mysterious sound was fun to be around. Fun while it lasted.

Today

Sleep & Rest: 7 hours or a little more.
Yoga Practice: Nothing.
Sun & Air: Spent time on a boat cruise with my family for my dad's birthday. Definitely got some fresh air & a little sunshine on the windy sun deck.

Fruity Meals: Papaya / Melon / Tamarind & a few medjool dates / Cucumber noodles with chunky sauce (blended; celery, tomatoes, persian cucumbers, red pepper, lemon juice) on top / Some of the tomato sauce from lunch with chopped avocado on nappa cabbage leaves
I did super good considering I was on an "all you can eat" buffet cruise & did not even have one thing, except water. Then after that, I watched hours of cooking shows with my mother while spending time with her. Temptation was high today, but obviously not tempting enough! My raw food was super satisfying & well worth the wait after the cruise. 
Creative Work: Nope. Spent the whole day hanging out with family.
Give - Share: Shared my tomato sauce on raw cucumber noodles with my mom, and a tinsy bit of my tamarind with a few brave souls.
Incorporeal Bliss: Watching the sun reflect & twinkle on the water during the cruise. Being proud of my nephew & his new job. Feeling inspired by my sister & her work. I really like this little video she made of her jewelry that she posted on her blog. Lots of bliss today. :) I'm grateful.

Fruity Meals: Fresh OJ / Papaya / Fresh figs / Grapes / A super good tomato gazpacho! Very easy; celery, tomatoes, persian cucumbers, red pepper, lemon juice
Creative Work: Got super good ideas while walking today. Running & walking always clears my head so that I can think bigger. :) When my brain is busy & full, there isn't room for much else. It's so important to empty out. I also wrote my post for Sunday Is For Lovers, which I will post this evening, so that it's ready for sunday morning.
Give - Share: Gave thanks for public toilets! So happy to have 'em available when I need 'em.
Incorporeal Bliss: Laughing at something that I saw. I swore I saw a tree dancing with it's arms (limbs) up. It looked just like a woman dancing in the wind. It was such a funny sight. I laughed out loud. It made me happy.

Incorporeal Bliss: Noticing is bliss. Wow, so many things; the way the breeze lifts my hair in funny directions, the lightness of delicate flowers, pine needles collecting in piles & sticking together as it rolls in the wind, bees entering flowers for nectar, warm sun rays on my arms, juicy clear liquid in my Brown Turkey figs, a woman's excitement & eagerness as she buys her grapes that will soon be out of stock & out of season, the smile of a cashier to a customer in front of me, the tenderness of my mother as she speaks, the calmness in the air as it settles down & gets dark, the subtle vibration my laptop makes, the healthy sheen on my skin, the slight soreness in my quads, the contentedness I felt today when I focused on just being, the freedom I feel when alone yet in public places surrounded by people, the stiffness of the yellow tinted pages in the book I was reading, I was afraid they would tear or crumble....so many things today. I've already forgotten a lot.

Not just a body, not just some-thing, but a holy being full of infinite possibility & grace. Why would that not be enough? It's limitless & perfect.
