Your soul is a beacon of infinite power. You can expand that power from within and give light and health and understanding to others.

The scenery of mountains painted on the ever-changing azure canvas of the sky, the mysterious mechanism of the human body, the rose, the green grass carpet, the magnanimity of souls, the loftiness of minds, the depth of love-- all these things remind us of a God who is beautiful and noble.

RULES - Once you've been tagged, you have to write a blog with 8 facts/things/habits little known about yourself, also saying who tagged you. Choose 6 (or 8 in some blogs I've read) people to be tagged and list their names. No tag backs. here are my 8 things: 1. i love the ritual of morning coffee. either french press at home, or soy hazelnut latte on my way to work, or (my personal fave) carolena's peet's italian roast at the studio. not all in one day. i try to limit myself to one cup a day. mmmm coffee... 2. i am currently trying to learn about anatomy. i'm thinking about taking a class in the fall. 3. i am the membership assistant at greenbelt alliance, a local nonprofit that promotes livable communities (transit justice, affordable housing) and protects open spaces (parks and meadows). don't be fooled by proposition 90; it's a taxpayer trap. for more information or to join, visit greenbelt.org. these folks are the hardest working, hardest hitting, most efficient workers i know. your generosity will go a long way in protecting what makes the bay area an inspiring place to live. 4. i subscribe to mywordaday.com's vocab vitamins. they send you a cool word every day with definitions and examples. 5. but then again, talk is cheap, and it's actions that really speak the truth. 6. i used to play tennis alot-- lessons and camps and the high school team-- but i could never enjoy the competitive side of it. my brother and i would bang the ball around for hours and i could serve a basket of high powered serves in practice, but when in competition i would consistently psyche myself out and choke at the big points... excruciatingly embarrassing... 7. i hate when people introduce me as a lawyer. like that's the thing about me that impresses them the most... what-the-fuck-ever... 8. i know all the words to: kansas' dust in the wind, bruce springsteen's thunder road, and pink floyd's wish you were here. rock on, twisted sister! and now the best part, who'm i gonna tag? i tag: polly suzan bailey jamilla dew saba melissa anjali

The countless forms in Nature are expressions of Thy versatile genius-- originals from Thy ceaselessly vibrating fingers. May we see in all creation Thine inimitable handiwork. --Paramahansa Yogananda

Life has a bright side and a dark side, for the world of relativity is composed of light and shadows...Look only for the good in everything, that you absorb the quality of beauty. --Paramahansa Yogananda

The best way to live is to take life as a cosmic game, with its inevitable contrasts of defeat and victory. Enjoy the challenges as you would in a sport, no matter whether at the moment you are victorious or vanquished. --Paramahansa Yogananda
