Susan Thinks It's Fabulous

The Memoirs of a Yoga Virgin.  I have a love-hate relationship with my new found obsession...yoga.  I must confess that  I'm not quite sure why I'm there.  I have many reasons, but frequently, in that moment of zen, I open my eyes wide (everyone else's is closed) , and ask myself, "Now why am I here?"     Exactly one month  and 20 sessions ago, I walked into a yoga studio, a virgin.  I was a yoga virgin.  I immediately loved being there, as the studio smelled of eucalyptus and I got to do something physical without shoes.  This was a big WIN.  I hate all forms of workout shoes (and workouts), so my heart was singing as I had found my space.  This particular studio offers Hot Yoga.  Okay, I'm in.  If cold yoga is good, Hot has to be better.  So, alone, with about 30 new found friends  I ventured into a room that literally took my breath away.  It was 105 degrees and I moved slowly and hesitantl...

I think it’s fabulous that the election of 2012 is OVER and that we can get back to the task of hand of just being Americans, because we still rock!   I love us!   We have the most fabulous lives …still!   Where else in the world could you speak so openly about your own opinions and be so blatantly against the leader of a country or his opponent.   Democracy was truly at work and this was definitely a test in freedom of speech as barbs flew both ways between the the parties and we were allowed to say what we think with no repercussions.   The sun came up this morning shining on America, signaling that we are still “One Nation Under God”.   And so we are.   What could be more fabulous than that?
