"it was a musical thing, and you were supposed to sing, and dance while the music was being played."

I've been working, so not posting. But two things I ran across today coincided in a nice way on an attitude that I *try* to take toward my own life, so I thought I'd pass them on. It's all a bit 'stop & smell the flowers'-y, but whatever. Sometimes we need reminding.

First, this meditation on the idea of non-attachment, from the Marbles blog:

Practice (abhyasa) and non-attachment (vairagya) are the two core principles on which the entire system of Yoga rests.

Practice is having an attitude of persistent effort. The essential companion to this is non-attachment, not being attached to what it all looks like, how it is suppose to go, what it is, or who it is. This is the balance.

And, then this, which was flagged by my friend tricia, who embraces life in a way we should all try to emulate.
