Grace isn’t something to hoard, it’s fuel, it’s what gives us the strength to go on when we feel spent. It is our acceptance of the gifts of the universe.

Free Yoga in the Park
I’m going to be leading the Free Yoga in the Park practice in Durham tomorrow morning.
Their website has details about location and such, though they don’t actually have me on the schedule or anything.
Anyway, come on out and have a nice free class in our beautiful end of summer weather.
This is our moment to be.
