A Long but learning Day

Today was a busy work day....also I had an MRI taken yesterday to check out my back ( lower lumbar) and this lump on my back side.

My appointment with the specialist to go over it the results was today at 12:30pm. I went to the office at 12:18pm at 1:10pm I went to the desk to see how much longer it would be. They informed me the Dr. had left because they misplaced my chart/file. He thought I did not show...WOW I could of really lost it but instead thought to myself....Hmm I wonder what I am to learn from this experience? The Dr. is suppose to call me to go over the results.

I did teach my yoga class this evening, it is awesome to be able to help others experience different emoti0ns - feelings - and to use yoga and the postures (asanas) to learn about them selves. I have been learning that stresses that are placed on our bodies if not delt with, whether that means we talk about them, or acknowledge them, or try to deal with them. They will create an unrest in our bodies. The more we keeep shoving them deeper and deeper they will weaken our bodies and make them more susecptible to diseases and sickness.

I know I have shoved many feelings during my life time and now I am trying to get over it and deal or face what is going on in my head and also my life. It is a journey!!!

I feel thankful for my life _ I was driving down the street today up by sugar house and saw this man in a wheel chair, he did not have much control over any part of his body - his hand would randomly hit this lever and he would move forward then spin around, he had no control of his head as it was bobbing back and forth along with his mouth being twisted and contorted into different weird shapes. I was at the stop light and watched him struggling and couldn't help but say a prayer that he would be blessed. Then i thought maybe he is, apparently he was out in the sunshine trying to go somewhere and his disability was not stopping him. I was then amazed at his determination and strength. Then I thought how blessed we all should feel with the bodies that we have. We have 2 legs ,2 arms, a head , neck , strong feet to take us where we need to go, two hands that are strong they love, touch and help us and others in so many different ways. I then said another prayer of thanks that I am so blessed and need to appreciate more of what I am able to do.

That is all for today
