On Children
Kahlil Gibran
Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts, For they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.
You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth. The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite,and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far. Let our bending in the archer’s hand be for gladness; For even as He loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable.

Tuesday, June 5th 7-9pm – Yoga Sutra Study Group
Please join us as we continue our study of the sacred text, Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras. The Yoga Sutras have many translations and offer us a scientific approach to our yoga practice. These Sutras, or threads, hold a wealth of information and point us in the direction of wholeness and enlightenment. Together we will interpret sections of the sutras and read from a variety of translations. Please bring a journal, something to write with a copy of the sutras (if you have one) and an open mind ready for discussion! Light Refreshments will be served. $15 Please RSVP if you plan to attend.
I am now having Osteopathic Manipulation Therapy for my torn hip. I have been advised to not put pressure, other than walking, on my joint. So, sadly, I am taking an hiatus from yoga. When I am on maintenance therapy I will return. In the meantime, I will be missing you all. Peace, Toni
Sorry to hear this Toni, hope you heal quickly!
Happy day of giving and receiving life. See you wednesday. Carol S.
