Today something great happened. I went for a free yoga in the park. Everyone else's scheduled shifted around to accommodate my yoga session. Not me trying to fit it in in the middle of life but other things moved out of the way for this. More proactive.

I had one hour to myself. One hour stretching my body into elegant poses while squinting into the setting sun. One hour of the river breeze on my skin, my mind empty of most 'to dos', not thinking of anyone's wants. Just yogaing and listening to the instructor say things like "breathe into the back left lung", or "feel the skin on your forehead move down to your nose".

Afterwards I made a friend, I asked for an alternate freebie, I made small talk with our neighbor's dog and I felt good about myself. I was happy again. The colours were there.
