I just realized that yesterday was my blog’s 3rd month anniversary. I’m surprised because I’m still blogging. I have never enjoyed writing but for some reason I’m enjoying this. Growing up in grade school, high school and college, I always hated reading and writing. I was the math guy. I’m more comfortable around numbers. The only things I read were textbooks that were required in school and the sports section. My dad used to force me to read during my summer vacation and I hated it. In those days, I would have rather played soccer or basketball. So what happened to me? Am I evolving? Am I becoming a well-rounded person (I doubt it)??? Now that I’m older I’ve gone out of my way to read a few books. I still struggle to read but now I’m making an effort. It will be interesting so see if I will still be blogging a year from now. I wonder if this is just a fad or something I will do for the rest of my life.
Practice this morning was good as usual. I started at around 6:45AM so I had to rush part of my practice. I noticed that an average practice in the Silverlake shala is still better than a good practice in the Brentwood/Westwood shala. I know I say it all the time but the space and the energy in the Silverlake shala is so much better. It’s very focused. Often times I’d wake up and am not in the mood to practice but once I get going I forget about how I felt earlier. I love this practice.
