“It is hard when your yoga instructor decides to teach the class a bunch of new poses that you are not able to do very well.”
It is called Yoga Stress Syndrome. This is when you go to an hour-long yoga class and are unable to do most of the poses the class is doing that day and you leave there more stressed than before.

“When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it–always.”
–Mahatma Gandhi
“I have already settled it for myself so that flattery and criticism go down the same drain and I am quite free.”–Georgia O’Keeffe

“There was never yet an uninteresting life. Such a thing is an impossibility. Inside of the dullest exterior there is a drama, a comedy, and a tragedy.”
― Mark Twain
We can not tell from the outside what a person’s life has been. When we reach out and talk to people we never know what we may find out. So many turn away from the elderly. Just think of all the interesting stories that are missed by not engaging with them. Stories from a long-lived life with lessons learned. Do we think they have nothing worth sharing? What can we learn from them?
“A smile is a curve that sets everything straight.”–Phyllis Diller
Early in her career Phyllis Diller did stand up comedy in San Francisco at a club called The Purple Onion in 1955. I never saw her there. I would have been too young at that time. I did go to The Purple Onion on a prom date several years later.
Phyllis Diller was one of the first female stand up comedians. She always made me laugh. Especially when she did skits that included her husband Fang.
“When we tug at a single thing in nature, we find it attached to the rest of the world.”
—John Muir
I love John Muir. He was a wonderful naturalist who co-founded the Sierra Club in California and influenced congress to pass a bill making Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks. He is called the father of the National Park Service.
Here is a bit via PBS on you tube:

“One day if I do go to heaven…. I’ll look around and say, It ain’t bad but it ain’t San Francisco.” —Herb Caen
” Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.”
—Mark Twain
This is for us who like to march to the beat of a different drummer and chafe at the demand to conform.
