It's nice to know that you're still reading this bloggy blog, as it often never crosses my mind. So for you to be looking at it, there's a good chance that you're putting forth more effort into this blog than I am. This is largely because my life has gotten busy lately. I've started to actually get serious about my health and start getting back in shape, so I've been playing basketball a few times a week. I have a large gap between my morning and afternoon classes, so I'm able hit the gym and clean up before heading to class again. Basketball is one of my few true loves, so I'm glad that I've started playing again. I've also been taking lots of yoga classes; I always feel so refreshed and invigorated after yoga that I can't pass up the opportunity. I've added daily meditation to my lifestyle as well; I've been turning the mundane household tasks like dishwashing and cleaning into opportunities for me to practice mindfulness. It's nice to be so consumed in something that all thoughts just cease.

Things just seem to be falling into place for me right now. I'm happy with the way things are and the people in my life. As much as I loved going to therapy (and I'm not being sarcastic), my counselor and I both agreed that I don't need it anymore. I know where I've been and I know where I'm going; I feel like the world is my oyster.

And it is.

Peace, love, and parsnips,

Justin
