Acroyoga

I'm about to go do acroyoga, which is another name for flying, but one thing I know:  Our species doesn't fly!

I'm hoping I don't end up paralyzed from the neck down.  But, if that should happen, I will try to be graceful rather than bitter.  Remind me.  I'll be all, "meh, moving wasn't all it's cracked up to be.  I'm just enjoying being right here in the present.  Grateful, in fact.  Could you spoon feed me a little more tapioca pudding please?  Oh, never mind, turns out I can't swallow.  No big deal."  I'll be saying that with my left eyelash, though, so pay attention.

    1. Dear Sylvie,
      Do you think it's coincidence that blog rhymes with dog? Me neither! You must always be thinking of it, work your life around it, get up early, go on walks, throw toys (metaphorically.) It's exactly the same, but without the "D".

  4. Gracefulness or bitterness will just be temporary, acceptance should be your goal.

  6. You're flying and I've been invited to walk on fire. I think the Moon is in some kind of transit with Uranus. Or something.

    You'll be fine. You have Yogi Flight Attendants. I'm sure of it.

    1. Oh, right! Yogi Flight Attendants. Or WFA. I hope walking on fire is, well, not as bad as it sounds....
