I've been taking my time reading Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert. It's taken me a few weeks but I'm finally in the section about devotion, prayer, yoga, self control, and God. This is exactly what I need to be hearing and what I want to start truly practicing.
For a while I've been out of yoga practice, in and out of good eating and sleeping habits, starting projects without finishing them. It's been frustrating not only to me, but those around me. While they don't come out and say it - myself included - I think I've just hit on why I've been having a difficult time communicating with friends and family. The bottom line is that I haven't been able to successfully communicate with myself.
I'm sure that I'll slip back into a haze of "I want this, no that, no this, no that" because we all allow our ego's to get the best of us sometimes. We are human after all. For now, however, I'm content with being content and in the present.
There is no need to rush - unless, of course, it's grilling the breaded zuchinni before it goes bad or baking those peach muffins I keep putting off!
