Hello friends,
As we sat and talked this morning, I could not help but to think how far I have came from out of darkness. When I look back and count my blessings. What a joy. How could I doubt or be afraid to move ahead, to grow, to step out but yet I am at times. Believe it or not I have a hard time talking in front of others for fear of saying the wrong thing or the wrong word at the wrong time and sometimes or a lot of the times I do. I have just learned to laugh at myself instead of beating myself up. It happens a lot right along with the bad speller in me. Facing my fears is not half as bad as I had ever imagined in fact quite the opposite.

Most of the time I am either repairing yesterday or preparing tomorrow in my mind. I know it is vital to reflect on our past to grow and to dream for tomorrow but sometimes I can get lost in that and not truly become present. I am a work in progress. Finding balance. Another thing that happens to me is random thoughts. They come at me so fast sometimes I can not comprehend them all. I have finally realized that I can cast down the wrong thoughts and focus on the right ones. What a treat to recognize and put into action. All obstacles are workable! Love That! Going to write that on on my wall!

Another note I have the worst headache ever! What's with that. I felt great all week and thought the diet was fun and even easy. Then wham right when we began yoga, Boom! Ouch! Headache!I came home and took a nap, woke up andit is still here. My first thought was to drink a diet coke but I am not going to. I am going to work through it. Then with talking with Michelle this morning, I'm thinking maybe it is not diet related but thought process related. Maybe I just need a bath and to go stand on my head. I seemed to get some relief when doing block stance in class.

I sooooo enjoyed the cleanse, Thank you for a wonderful experience. May this week forever be a positive effect in your lives.

Love is the answer,
Leslie

Leslie, you can spell "a lot", which be-devils many, many writers... what do you mean you can't spell?

you've been such a positive force in our kula leslie, we are all blessed to have been able to be with you as you've stepped out from behind the veil of illusion! and we're blessed to be with you as the work continues. hope your headache is better by now. sometimes it's just ok to have a headache, they happen, after all. i applaud your choice of not medicating it with aspartame and a host of other chemicals which could be doing far worse than a headache to your body! nice work!
