Dance class last night felt really good. I got tired, but it was that good kind of tired feeling. Also was energized. L is feeling queasy--she's been fighting off some kind of bug. Debating whether I go to the dance tonight or not.

Got up this morning feeling fine. Did Qigong and went out for breakfast. Bumped into K at the Country Sun. We exchanged stories of what's been happening for both of us. Her daughter is now 18! How they grow! Her mother had a stroke and is in a wheel chair undergoing physical therapies. Her daughter recently moved out on her own. K also just lost her job. She seems to be adrift right now, weathering the storms.

Went to Barrone's for breakfast. First time in months. Felt good! Grabbed a sandwich for lunch (egg salad) and made a smoothie for dinner. Lots of protein today. See if it kicks in.

I came back from breakfast and went for a walk. My left leg was creaky today, from dancing most likely. After lunch, I came back and slept for several hours.

Got a call from my daughter. We're meeting tomorrow for lunch.

Last night, I felt as good as I've felt in a while. Sleeping all afternoon, eating well, and then doing movement and dance just all came together. A hint of wholeness! I realized (knock on wood) that I've been incredibly healthy throughout these past months/year. I've had symptoms, but I've not had illnesses piled on top of everything. My core health (immune system) is intact and working. It's what is guiding my healing processes. It knows what needs to be done, what there is to do.

Leaning toward not going to the dance tonight. But, may change my mind! That's what all of this is about--a change of Mind! Daily Rigpa quotes have been focused on aspects of Mind--how important it is to learn about the Mind, know the Mind while we are here. The thoughts resonate with me. The healing power of the Mind! May it be found!
