Libra moments
Options for New Year's Eve, 2005:
Stay out on Long Island where I'm spending the day with a fellow yoga-geek and avoid all movement in the City on Crazies-Come-Out Day. Face the drunks on the subway and a) head out to Brooklyn where some friends are going to a local bar; as it was put to me, nice and easy and early, b) be brave and go to a Buddhist compassion meditation downtown, alone. Or hang out at home with el Gatito, who's been somewhat under the weather lately, watch it unfold on tv.
What I really woulda liked to do is hightail it upstate to the ashram for a few days. For next time. Because I'm training on the 1st, and on-call for the 2nd. Money-procuring must take precedence, at last, over "other" pursuits. And that's ok.
But the stars shine brighter in the crisp damp bark-infused night air that carries sounds of kirtan at Ananda.

In the meantime, emblematic of my decision-making processes, last coupla monthS, all this. Hard to know what direction to go in, if you don't know what direction you want to follow.
Are you ever really sure? Isn't mercury in retrograde? How much longer? Are we there, yet? Said with a smile.
Whatever you're doing, hope it's a kind and conscious one. Much love is there. Always.
