Erasing your memory

I walked this morning faster – it’s my part to reinvigorate my body and to put some pep in my step. I looked at my to do list and realized that everything might not get done – it’s part of my new I don’t have to be perfect mantra. I did yoga and tried to make myself as juicy as I could – it was the theme of the day to be liquid, to be ojas, to be juicy, and not be uptight and linear.

I thought about something I heard in the play the other day – about how he wanted to wipe out the myth of motherhood and that they are all saints. And I thought about my mom who leaned on me when I was very young and came to me for help when I was only a little girl. She always complimented my confidence and my strength and encouraged it and relied on it. And for 50 years I’ve been strong and confident and people have come to rely on it, and lean on it, and compliment me for it.

BUT I HAVE HAD ENOUGH.
