For the first time since we came here, I took off to do something for myself this afternoon. Two sweet Canadians invited me to their house to do yoga. She, Rebecca, is a trained Sivananda yoga teacher, and her husband, Jeff, is a gentle, flexible dude. They tucked their two little girls away at a babysitter, and we went out on the roof to yog.
Oh my it was nice. My body had been wondering if I was going to remain tucked into downward-facing-computer position for the rest of the year.
As we moved, so did the clouds above. At first, they covered the sky, then they opened right above us, then the sun wandered behind the mountains, and the clouds followed. We did balancing postures beneath the first stars, and the lights of Taitung blinking on below us.
Omm shanti shantii!
