Anticipation

I can not believe in 12 hrs I will be on a plane that is going to drop me off in Costa Rica for a month! Honestly, I don't think the reality of it all has sank in. I'm doing this?! I'm really doing this?! And yet, I feel like it is exactly what I should be doing. Ha Ha

In the car, to the airport, a thousand thoughts were rolling through my head. All the normal worries about finances, family, etc... It hit me that at this moment I am unemployed. I've never been without a job. I started working at 15 and haven't stopped. This is crazy. My brain was going over all the things I should be worried about and yet I had this sense of peace. I should be worried about what I'm going to do for work when I get back, affording to move back to GA, paying my bills... and some how I feel that everything is going to work out. Guess that's how I know I'm am exactly where I need to be.

When I booked the flight to Miami, I gave my self an extra day here before I left for Costa Rica. Last night, I was wondering why I did so. Having my grandparents around and visiting family members has become very comfortable for me, even though I didn't realize it until I was laying in this hotel bed all alone. I don't even have my pets with me. While I was in MI, I occasionally felt overwhelmed. I lived alone away from family for so long, that it was quite different to have them there. I sometimes felt that I just needed a break. Just a moment of alone time. Funny, how when you get exactly what you think you want, you realize that its not at all what you need. I love the time I spent with them. This has really opened my eyes to how lucky I was to have that opportunity to reconnect. I could barely read the letter my older sister wrote me. I am so blessed!!

Today, I spent time to my self. Reflecting on what is about to happen and what has. I completed my first teacher training assignment. I had to complete it using the book The Heart of Yoga. This book is perfect for me. I have practiced so many different Yoga styles and this is the first time I feel that I, as a Christian, can really connect with one. The Guatemala trip, the Argentina trip, all didn't work out because this is the exact place, exact style that I need to practice, that I eventually need to teach. I love how life just works when you are willing to lift your feet and let the river of life take you wherever it wants to go.

The next time y'all hear from me I'll be in Costa Rica, starting this amazing journey. Oh my goodness!!
