10/23/09 Nature's Market

I got up today. It was raining. I think rain is so beautiful. Especially when it's warm and when you can stay inside. Outside my bedroom window the trees are turning yellow and red and still with greens. The birds are hiding from the rain.

I get all my exercises done. I'm getting more done, and that's even with low energy. It's that article I read about the inner voices--the negative, tamasic voice that tells you stay in bed another few minutes, do a fun crossword puzzle --you deserve to play; and the positive, statvic voice that tells you to get up and get started. This voice gives you energy to do what's important to you. Instead of falling down Alice's rabbit hole and having to drag yourself out--your statvic cheer leader gets you up and doing.

I knew that I'd be working hard at NM today, so I rested after lunch. I wanted to be able to do my best. And I did.
