Great day or lousy day?

It was one of those days when I was able to notice most of the good things in life - big and small.

Waking up to a new day - alive and healthy! Running water, hot and cold! Nice clothes to wear! Fresh juice to drink! A job to go to! Beautiful weather - neither hot nor cold! Train station close to home! Train that’s always on time! My favorite corner seat! An hour of thinking and reading time! Nice office - with a sea view! The old cleaning lady who cleans with a passion and greets with enthusiasm! Clean pantry with filtered drinking water! Lots of work to do - mostly enjoyable! A Mac that’s always reliable - no virus, no spam, no hanging up! High-speed Internet access! An email from Hamza recommending another productivity software! Lots of people who trust me with their problems and impossible deadlines! An unexpected lunch meeting in a nice and quiet restaurant with the most divine tempura! New things to learn! Central air-conditioning to keep us cold, and a portable heater under the desks when it gets too cold! Lots of things to laugh about! Coming home to a loving family! Still being in love with the same person after almost 30 years! Kids (many) that we are proud of! Amazing home-cooked food for dinner…WOW!

What kind of a day do you think I had? Amazing, exciting, wonderful, of course! There were some problems for sure and a few challenging situations, but somehow they all looked small and insignificant! On any given day we all have more good things than bad things. But when we fail to notice and acknowledge them, even small problems and challenges look big and we end up having a lousy day! If our days make up our life, we can pretty much control the quality of our lives, can’t we?

Why Is My Yoga Mat Always Crooked

By: Tamara Kleinberg | 28/12/2009
I always get to my yoga class early so that I can get a prime spot in the front row in front of the mirror. As always, we started seated and then moved into our flows. Every time we were in warrior two – facing the side wall, front leg bent, back leg straight, arms out, eyes forward – I noticed that I was always just slightly crooked relative to everyone else in the mirror. I would check my pose, straighten out and fall in line with everyone else. Clearly I was doing something wrong. Or was I?
