Pain

Pain I feel over lack of information on Dylan. Pain caused by my family struggles. Sometimes you need the physical pain to dull the emotional pain. That's what I did tonight. Despite my aching shoulder (got hit by a drunk driver 10 years ago and have a tear) I took a yoga class with my dear friend J. I beat myself senseless. At the very end, as I laid on the floor trying to find peace, all I could find were tears. I glanced over at my dear J and she was smiling - I had found release. A release she understood and shared. J, I know you read my blog. I truly love you. You touch my heart and I am so glad to have you as my friend. Thank you for sharing your practice with me - you have helped me find a little peace tonight.

    Sounds like a good thing to have happen.
    Hoping the relief lasts as long as possible.

    Glad you found some release. I did yoga for awhile. The only release I got was gas released when I was bent like a pretzel in a position called something like downward sun rising dog, or something like that!

    Sounds like you had the same kind of day I had today.

    Yoga can be a great vehicle for releasing emotional issues - and it isn't infrequent that students have outbursts - crying or laughing. It sounds like class was exactly what you needed. And, I do think that you did find your peace laying on that floor - just not the way you thought you would.

    (Sorry, the yoga teacher in me just couldn't keep the comments in)

    I love a good all out cry. I had one a little over a month ago. It was really uplifting.

    I hope you get some Dylan news soon. I can only imagine how you're feeling.
