Why can't heterosexual men be more observant?!

An email from a friend:

"Hope all is well...I saw you the other day....it was really a warm day...you had on a blueish print dress and flower in your hair...you were working it....I caught a glimpse and thought Wow who is that hottie....took a double and under those Hollywood Glasses you were wearing I said, OMG I know that star...it's Lisa....I know her. Remember I am gay, so you know you were stylin' if I said you were! ! !

"I was going into the Ofarrell garage and couldn't honk because you had already sashyed by....."

Late-night musings

"The intellectual is constantly betrayed by his vanity. Godlike he blandly assumes that he can express everything in words; whereas the things one loves, lives, and dies for are not, in the last analysis completely expressible in words." ~Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Through many years of studying Buddhism, practicing Bikram Yoga and meditating, one of the most important things I learned was "resting in the space between thoughts." Some days are easier than others, especially when monkey mind is in full effect. Connections. I love it when I think of one thing, and it leads me automatically to another, as if by magic.

Thank you to yoga teacher Kendra, who shared this with me during one of my first Bikram classes in 2001:

"The tongue is the hardest sense instrument to tame. Our need to comment is obsessive and compulsive. Chasing after taste bud pleasure is slavery. Witness your inner silence and be free."
