time to write!

Time to write for me…  so long it has been.. I keep starting to write and then leave it half way…  I have to write to completion. 

I am home for more than a month now.  I began teaching Mysore classes again and it is such a blessing!  I see how much I missed to share what I am receiving from my teachers.  Every teaching is a teacher for me, every student is a new interaction to learn from.  I am starting to drop expectations and just do what I love to do without interfering with the monkey mind :P  It is not always easy, hoping more people would show up, hoping the already existing ones will take upon the practice with big enthusiasm, etc…  but have to learn to stay with what is here and now and just do the best I can… the rest will follow, whatever is suppose to come will follow… have to stay present with faith.

I was very happy to get back home after more than seven months.  I had a long journey.  Mysore days were wonderful.  It was hard to leave…  Then, some traveling to Thailand, which is beautiful, and Sri Lanka with gorgeous beaches…  After two months of due time, back to India again, to Goa.  Studying with Rolf and Marci one more time, such blessing to be with them.  Goa, is the second home, Mysore is the second home… hard to choose between those two.  But the best part of all was to feel that home is the home, I mean Istanbul is the home for now.  I was happy to miss Istanbul finally and have some enthusiasm to make somethings work here. 

So here I am for a while.  Until August I teach, a little break and then teaching again and maybe a Mysore trip.  Practice in the mornings feel good.  I am feeling that I am getting more skilled each time with working on things that I get from my teachers.  Bringing back homework, coming home with things to work on.  Change does not happen over night or sometimes not even in a month, it can take months, years.  But each study I take with my teachers give me something to work on.  Before, I would have the tendency to expect big changes during each study, and sometimes I would feel disappointed… now I see that it does not work like that… the journey is long, and it requires patience, diligence and dedication.  And I love the journey!

By the way, I am thinking of moving to wordpress... any opinions about that?
