It's Thursday, the beginning of my quieter time with only one class today and one Saturday. I am so blessed to have many new people among those doing yoga with me. Each time I meet with a new one, I realize how blessed we both are to have found each other. And, my spiritual companioning groups expand my horizons beyond my wildest dreams. On Saturday after class, I'll head for the family time-share in Shipyard at Hilton Head for two weeks of connecting with my sons and their families, my brother Jim and his wife Anne, and their daughter Kate. How fortunate I am to have FAMILY. How fortunate I am to be able to connect with them at least annually. Connecting with friends and family, I have learned in my elder years, is truly the most important factor in achieving happiness. I didn't know this in my earlier years, but I do now. Then I was busy trying to be "somebody", as Ram Dass says. Now I'm learning to be "nobody" and in so doing become closer to being connected to the One. What a kick!
