the gratitude i squeezed out from a day in which the heat and my mind were driving me crayzee
1) That I left the Kundalini class instead of getting a migraine (when I told the teacher I had to leave b/c I was getting a headache, he actually said, over the blaring chanting music, “Don’t worry, we’re doing a gong meditation next,” gesturing the the gigantic cymbal next to him)
2) Prospect Park
3) All the incredibly random cool people from my past who have been Facebooking me lately
4) Learning about “water logic” from Pema–and cultivating “groundlessness” (yuh-huh, good luck with that, ye clutching ground-hugger)
5) That I’m writing some bad fun poetry
6) A/C
7) Watermelon
8) Coconut water straight from the young nut
9) Metaphor
10) Weekends
11) The Wackness soundtrack
12) “Irritation is the path to wisdom”
