OH GAWD i gotta get my Yogic ass in gear...
I crave Yoga and have been doing at least 5hrs/day since returning home. I want stillness and focus, NO MORE of this radical (dare I say ridiculous) "play". And to think, I almost went to Silks class today...with a gimp right hand?!
Instead I called a girlfriend who helped me with hindsight, and then took my dog (who I never see anymore) on a walk (as I couldn't fathom asking my stretchalicious legs to run), & had an epiphany during such:
I am not 19 anymore, nor a boy, so why in hell do i (sometimes) act like one? I don't get paid to stand on top of a cliff, look down and think "this could be it". But, I went with the flow of the 30 and under crowd, and found myself in such a sitch, when low and behold, i free associated to a kid i knew when I was 23; he was 19, and CRAZY- wrong source of inspiration!
Shit...More Yoga for now, hallelujah, More Yoga for now!
I am excited for school tomorrow. I need good folk in my life, so that the ruffians I tend to "push the envelope" with, aren't my only flock.
More YOGA! More Connection! More Internal Exploration!
Less Drama! Less Stress! Less Guilt!

I am back in SF & it's raining. What the fuck? School started though, and I am ready!
I climbed some trees. I surfed big-n-brutal waves. I jumped off a 30ft cliff (two too many times). I b'came known for my "fun-serious circus" & had a hoot sharing. I hunted fish & picked fruit from the trees. I broke my right pinky/hand while flying off the slackline. I let the sun kiss my skin, and embraced the warmth. I feel rather alive!
My last few days in Costa had me curious about my Spiritual Quest. Why is it easier to be at one with my Self in a town like MalPais, than say San Francisco? Is this my bullshit story, b/c deep down I like spending hours upon hours everyday "training" my mind/body in the sunshine? They say "Pura Vida"...I've fallen head over heels for places like this before; Yosemite, Cascades, Mama's Hawaii home.
Yet I long for community, exchange, & usually find myself migrating back towards a city.
Someday I want to have babies in an atmosphere where they are free to play amongst nature's Yard and be multi-culturally educated. I simply gotta figure out with who/when/where...HAHA!!!

Tan lines, fine behinds, I salute the ladies who play.
Strong abs, dandy lads, I sure do like people w/humor.
Dress less, participate more, should I live here?
Inheritance paid, where do I lay, my monies and buy?
Getting paid to share my talents hasn't ever been a problem. Here I am, teaching Yoga to people who admired my "balance". A lady from Seattle even offered to pay me to teach her to surf, as she appreciated my "keep it fun" attitude while learning. So, my pockets are feelin' phat, and yes, I am looking to buy a house/condo/land...Simply an investment, that I am ready to make happen.
Hence,
1) Name your top 3 WA 'hoods to live in?
2) Top spots anywhere in this small World where you'd buy & why?
Red Beans and Rice, keepin my system nice, Ana will be so proud. HA!
