We had coffee with Matt and Sandy. Then found out we had the use of a suite. It was a lot of walking but I got through it (thanks to my recent weight loss--yes, it makes a difference). We sat in the front row of the suite. There were snacks and drinks.
The Cirque Du Soleil was magical. I loved the mimes. So expressive--funny and moving. I'm not a clown person, but these mimes were not clowns and they were the thread that held the show together. There were two amazing singers. And the acrobats and other performers were awesome. Our favs were a man who seemed to fall from the ceiling. He was held by a bungee cord which he used to almost fly. The audience was transfixed. And a woman who danced with a long ribbon that she used to create flowing, dancing shapes. She also worked with metal hoops. She was able to move them up and down her body. I'm not sure how.
The combination of thrilling acts , magical sets and costumes, and music were enchanting. I'm so excited that we got to see it, and from such excellent seats.
2/14 I came out of the shower to see a huge card on my side of the bed and an adorable toy lion. He purrs and laughs and if you pull his tail he meows. I love him and I'm going to make him a part of my daily morning practices. He can keep away the bad vibs.
I went to NM during the day. At night, MKate, Luke and I had dinner at Noodles and saw a romantic movie--"Valentine's Day." The movie got bad reviews. We liked it (although it wasn't great). The key idea was that if you want to have love in your life, you have to take the person you love faults and all. I think it's true.
2/15 Meditation class very deep. I shared a story from the book, "Meeting God, " which I'm hoping to buy and read soon. The true story was a journey of love and faith that saved the life of a child.
