and I'd spent the day fumbling through work and chores.

I kept forgetting things, dropping things, and I was getting a bit nasty with myself in my own head.

I needed rest.

And the idea of getting to yoga.

And laying my mat in that quiet dark space.

It was all that was keeping me going.

And now, somehow I was wonderfully early, nearly thirty minutes till class time, but I knew the room would be open and ready.

I found a parking spot a block or so from the studio and just sat in the car for a moment.

I slid a journal out of my glove box and rooted around till I found a pen.

It was a habit of mine to write down whatever was most pressing on my mind before I went in for my yoga practice.

This seemed to help me gain a bit of space from my thoughts.

Because they existed in the journal, out in the physical world, they didn't have to exist in my head.

My thoughts could behave sometimes like a little kid pulling at my sleeve and demanding my attention.

And when I put them down on paper, I got a break from that.

I put the journal away, gathered up my mat and keys, and started walking along the downtown streets toward the studio.

I looked in the windows as I went.

Letting the sights and sounds of the early evening catch my attention.

There was an orange dress in the window of a clothing store.

There were people eating sandwiches and drinking mugs of coffee in the diner.

There were kids playing a game, running along the sidewalks and calling out to each other, while their unzipped coats flapped around them in the cool evening air.
