What a wonderful New Years Resolution, Juliette!

Mine is to learn to connect mind, body and spirit again with yoga, tai chi and meditation, and thus find better health.

I found an old diary and thought it would be very appropriate here and especially today! Just happened to read it just now and wanted to share it with you! You may have heard it before? Its by Antonio Machado:

Caminante
Al andar se hace camino
y al volver la vista atras

Se ve la senda que nunca
Se ha de volver a pisar

Caminante no hay camino
Sino estelas en la mar

Caminante no hay camino
Se hace camino al andar



In English:

Traveller

On walking we make our path
And on turning we see itbehind us

We see its source of the path that we
Will never be able to tread again

Traveller there is no path
Only wakes in the sea

Traveller there is no path
We make out path by walking.

Happy new year! Stephy Ingham xxx

Heya Stephy! Your wishes sound great too. I've also been thinking along the yoga line. Must be the effect of Secrets To Recovery! Did you hear the Fiona Agombar talk on Beating Fatigue with Yoga? It was very interesting.

Loved the passage that you shared too, thanks for that. Very poignant words and i love the line 'Traveller there is no path only wakes in the sea'. Really poetic image. We can only really go forward, that is remember the past, especially the happier moments but know that the present is where we live and that is how we make our destiny.....

hope all your aspirations for 2008 come true :-) XX
