My Father's Daughter

My parents dropped around the other day and, a funny thing, Dad is also currently having problems with sciatica. What's more, it seems that we've both been experiencing sciatic problems for about the same period of time. Is there some small glitch in the cosmic universe or maybe some psychic connection between father and daughter?

Conversing with the Ego

I'm currently walking around like a "Frankenstein gorilla" - stiff-legged, sway-backed, bent over, and I think a little lop-sided. It's hard to believe that, just over a month ago, I was revelling in my body's improved strength and flexibility as I practised Surya Namaskara.

The First Step

There is a Chinese proverb:

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

My journey started last year.
