Intuition. Energy Exchange. Yoga Yoga Yoga. Ooohh Russian Vlad's Intense Body Blast Class. Ekkk. Dinner on a patio with Sarah, Rob, and Rob-o's parents.

Reflection/Inspiration:

An interesting passage a read from the play Trout Stanley by Claudia Dey.

As Trout expresses below, Max in Where the Wild Things Are tracing way back to the ancient stories of Greece, Rome and mythological tales: there is a beast and epic force within each one of us. I know I often need to turn to it and let it take over! It seems so often we forget that we are SO much bigger than who we are here, and the way we like to describe ourselves. I know there are days where my inner beast fuels me with laughter, tears, rage and tons of roaring and rolling around on the floor! It's important to listen to it carefully and quietly- it will scream something the most invaluable and important things to you and give you infinite amounts of strength and support.

Trout:

" An' I believe in kissing. For weeks at a time. I believe in the unchartered territories of the human brain an' I am against the monarchy. I believe that comin' of age is man's cruelest invention. I believe that forgiveness is overrated. I believe in time travel an' space travel. I believe that cooking is an act of love. I believe in revenge as much as I believe in peace. I believe that the divine is where solitude and togetherness meet in perfect seamless harmonious union. I believe in undying loyalty. I believe that war is a godly trick forcing us to look into the weakest parts of bein' human. An' I believe that our great tragedy is that we haven't thought to look. I believe that the nipple, the tongue, the lips, the place where the ear meets the neck, our eyelashes, as well as our sensual parts, are nature's most gracious offerings. I believe in fragility, slowness an' the long way around. I believe that the soul has a taste, a colour an' a smell, an' I believe that the soul can have orgasms. I believe that we're all animals, an' that anything worth anything comes from the beast within. "

Challenge of the Day: Integrity. Keep this word in mind as you carry on with your day. What surfaces?
