Flexibility

Some days I just wake up stiff. It happens more and more with age, and my almost daily yoga only just barely gets the kinks out of my system in morning.

But mentally I’ve been just as stiff lately. I don’t seem to have the bounce that I used to. It takes me a while to accept when things aren’t going my way and re-adapt.

Today has been good, though. I’ve been persistent for a few things I needed to get done and I’m pleased with the results. I’m also very happy to finally go do something with a friend who I haven’t seen in months. I’ve been persistent there and she finally has some time for me.

Now if only I could use that persistence to do something resembling a back bend again! My shoulders just don’t seem to want to do that anymore. Even Foro with his big belly is better than I am.
