Met with the men's team tonight. Been nearly a year since we've all been together. Had lots of catching up to do. Was great to see everyone again.

I went through several states while being with everyone. My tremor came and went as the evening progressed. Seemed to abate some after I ate. Came back after sitting for a couple of hours. Went away again and returned when I ate a cookie. Came back full force as we started to leave when I walked into the chill night air. It's relatively quiet now with me back home.

It was an experience I've not had exactly--being with a group of people for several hours--engaged and sharing information.

Ready for my spit collection task that begins in the morrow. Sit and spit--I can do that! I can even eat at DeeDee's as long as I stay away from the aloo gobi. The toughest one will be the vial done late at night. I'll have to stay up for that one or fall asleep and set the alarm perhaps.

Had an interesting few minutes in a reverie with some sunlight and Yogananda's picture. I was sitting in my lounge chair and the sun was shining through the blinds. Some sunshine created a set of round spots of light. One of those spots was shining on Yogananda's picture, right over the spot of his third eye. As I watched, the spot moved across his forehead and off the right side of his face. As this took place, I experienced a release of tightness on my right side, especially on the right side of my head. When the spot disappeared, just his picture remained with his curious smiling image. As the spot was showing and moving, I received thoughts regarding impermanence--how things always change and disappear. As I recall the image of the moving spot of light, I feel a release of pressure in the right side of my head. Hmmm! It's a delicious feeling! Thank you sunlight. Thank you Yogananda!
